Columbia University and the Climate Science Legal Defense Fund today launched an online tracker of the Trump administration's crackdown on climate science.
The project, called the Silencing Science Tracker, has so far assembled 96 entries of federal restrictions or prohibitions on climate science since November 2016. The database is built from media reports, and it's searchable by agency, date and type of action.
More than half the entries are listed as censorship, either from government restriction or researchers who are self-censoring. Other instances include targeted personnel changes, budget cuts and other federal actions aimed at minimizing or hindering climate research. The project also links to resources for whistleblowers and legal help.
Part of the challenge is that there are so many avenues by which to attack science, with a new attempt coming more than once a week on average, he said. That's an unprecedented pace, even under a Republican president.
"Under [the George W. Bush administration] it was more likely that inconvenient science would be suppressed, but this administration is disrupting the scientific process itself," Halpern said.

If you opened the Book on Climate Science you’ll see Blank Pages
Got a good dose of that globull warming this week, brrrr.
Science uses the scientific method.
The scientific method requires reproducible, controlled experiments.
Climate “science” does not utilize reproducible, controlled experiments.
Climate “science,” therefore, does not utilize the scientific method.
Climate “science” is therefore not science.
Any questions?
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Since the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for environmental protection purposes, this web site is actually showing what a great job that Pres. Trump is doing to protect and defend the Constitution.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
"The smart crooks long ago figured out that getting themselves elected to federal office to make unconstitutional tax laws to fill their pockets is a much easier way to make a living than robbing banks." —me
"Federal career lawmakers probably laugh all the way to the bank to deposit bribes for putting loopholes for the rich and corporations in tax appropriations laws, Congress actually not having the express constitutional authority to make most appropriations laws where domestic policy is concerned. Such laws are based on stolen state powers and uniquely associated stolen state revenues." —me
Patriots now need to be making sure that there are plenty of Trump-supporting, state sovereignty-respecting patriot candidates on the 2018 primary ballots, and pink-slip career lawmakers by sending patriot candidate lawmakers to DC on election day.
And until the states wake up and repeal the 17th Amendment, as evidenced by concerns about the integrity of Alabama's special Senate election, patriot candidates need to win elections by a large enough margin to compensate for possible deep state ballot box fraud and associated MSM scare tactics.
MORE WINNING!

I agree.
This site could become very useful for us to brag about how good president Trump is doing
The entire study went into the realm of SWAGs. Too many possible influencing factors; too little understanding of their magnitudes or that of their interrelationships.
Weather forecasting, as wrong as it can be, is a better “science.”
