Reality Now: A Climate Reality Newsletter.
Welcome to the August 2025 edition of Reality Now.

The Trump Administration is continuing a campaign of disinformation and distrust of science to slow climate progress.

Along with the proposal to repeal the Endangerment Finding, the current administration is:

* Having EPA reconsider the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program, which requires polluters to report their greenhouse gas emissions to the federal government.
* Going after the satellites that are measuring climate warming emissions, specifically two NASA satellites that are the only federal satellites specifically made to monitor greenhouse gases.
* Altering previously published National Climate Assessments that have already been taken off government websites.
* And more
