Researchers across the US and the world who raced to protect climate data, public reports and other information from the Trump administration’s budget cuts, firings, and scrubbing of federal websites are launching their own climate information portals.

From our friends at @insideclimatenews.org:
Climate scientists raise a middle finger to Trump's censorship efforts
Hundreds are collaborating to make sure accurate data is available to the public.
