‍2025 has been a disastrous year for climate science in America. The 47th presidential administration has fired hundreds of scientists, starved programs and departments of funding, rolled back dozens of environmental regulations, undermined the tracking of hurricanes and extreme weather, and has taken down hundreds of federal websites, pages, references and data sets related to climate change. This ideological purge of climate research aligns closely with the goals of the Project 2025 Mandate for Leadership.

There are some great organizations working on archiving this data, including the Public Environmental Data Partners, The Data Rescue Project, and the Southern Environmental Law Center. We're adding our site to the pile, as the more of us that download and share this information, the harder it will be to suppress.

Since most people won't be combing through these spreadsheets, we've also mapped several of these data sets, and provided commentary to help make sense of this data. You can view those here:

• NCA5 (1.5C)
• NCA5 (2C)
• FEMA Future Risk Index
• CDC Social Vulnerability Index

We've also compiled reports from both public and private institutions, as well as research papers with a focus on climate resilience and adaptation. If there are any reports or data sets you think we've missed, let us know and we'll add it to the collection!

Summers have been heating up for decades, and they’ll only get hotter if heat-trapping pollution continues — making future summers in Minneapolis feel more like current summers in Tulsa.

With high levels of heat-trapping pollution, future summer high temperatures in 247 major U.S. cities would heat up by an average of 3.6°F by 2060 and 7.9°F by 2100. This analysis shows how future warming could transport a city’s current climate to an entirely different part of the country — or the world — with reduced commitments to lower carbon pollution .

On average, summer high temperatures across the 247 cities analyzed are projected to increase 3.6°F by 2060 and 7.9°F by 2100. Mitchell, S.D. is projected to warm the most by 2100 (11.1°F), when it will feel more like Wichita Falls, Texas.

By the end of this century, summers in the cities analyzed would shift to resemble hotter locations an average of 437 miles to the south. For 16 U.S. cities, there is no equivalent in North America to how hot they’d be in 2100. Their future summers are more similar to current conditions in Pakistan, the Middle East, and North Africa.
