Agreed, it was a great one! We got a Monday afternoon slot this year, though, which feels better.

Our comment to the DOE and EPA about the DOE Climate Working Group report is now posted on ESSOAR preprint server. It has a DOI and can now be cited!

essopenarchive.org/users/260056...
Screenshot of an ESS Open Archive preprint page. A green “Download PDF” button sits at top left. The title reads “Climate Experts’ Review of the DOE Climate Working Group Report.” Below are subject tags “Atmospheric Sciences” and “Climate Science,” followed by two listed authors. A “Preprint timeline” box shows “Submitted to ESS Open Archive” on 24 Sep 2025 and “Published in ESS Open Archive” on 29 Sep 2025. A citation block includes the DOI 10.22541/essoar.175745244.41950365/v2 and notes version v2 (processing). A right-side box says “Non-exclusive” and “No reuse.” A yellow banner at the bottom states: “This is a preprint and has not been peer reviewed. Data may be preliminary.”

Grateful to @andrewdessler.com for coordinating this (and keeping us on schedule)! I feel proud for having contributed to this monumental effort alongside some of my role models in this field. It felt necessary to respond to the report that was misleading at best and dangerous at worst.

The Department of Energy hired five academics to raise doubts about climate change. 85+ climate experts (organized by @andrewdessler.com) reviewed their report. Our conclusion, detailed in 450 pages of analysis: it is biased, full of errors, and not fit to inform policy making.

On July 29, 2025, the Department of Energy (DOE) published a report from its Climate Working Group (CWG). This report features prominently in the EPA's reconsideration of its 2009 Endangerment Finding...

My lab's been attacked by an anti-wind group and their lawyers. They threatened the science funding of my whole university, to shut me and my undergraduate research assistants up.

NYT just covered it. 1/n

A bunch of climate scientists, myself included, are currently devoting hours of unpaid and un-rewarded labor to fact-check the DOE’s mountain of bullshit for exactly this reason. They are engaged in a political project that demands explicit pushback.

That's it, man. If you've been paying attention to the right-wing apparatus and how it uses social media, it's really obvious:

1. Keep them from getting a platform in the first place
2. De-platform with extreme prejudice
3. Flood the zone with correct information and re-build trust

Claim: "Water vapor is a greenhouse gas!"
Reality: Yes, and there's more of it in a warmer atmosphere

-"CO2 is plant food!"
-pretty hard to eat when you're on fire

-"Climate has changed before!"
-We know, we told you that

-"Scientists don't know everything!"
- doesn't mean we know *nothing*

Going to #AGU25? Today's the last day to submit an abstract to this session we're organizing on climate attribution science and its applications to real-world issues like climate litigation or loss and damage!

Correction to the headline here. It's not the reports that have disappeared - it's the globalchange.gov websites themselves.

The reports are still available buried in the NOAA archives. NCA5 is here: repository.library.noaa.gov/view/noaa/61...
