Remember When: Dec. 31, 2016 - The Rush to Save Scientific Research About Climate Change is On!

Editor's Note: I'm taking a break right now. But I still have some posts that you may consider interesting from the last 18 years. This one is still relevant in 2026.
Science has been at war with civilizations throughout the world's history. Deniers of science have always treated scientific facts with disdain and fear.

Take the famous "Flat Earth" belief that went out of style during the waning days of the Roman Empire.

Imagine a coin as the Earth and then imagine the edge of that coin is actually a giant ice wall—either described as 150 feet or 1,500 feet tall. 

That’s the world flat Earth believers envision when they think about the plane - and because Earth is a disc, that makes it a plane, not a planet - that they live on.

Believe it or not there's still people today who believe in the flat earth myth.  They are the same people who deny climate change is caused by mankind.

With Donald Trump coming into power the Flat Earther's and Climate deniers have a champion. Trump believes climate change is a hoax by the Chinese.

Knowing this, scholars across the nation are rushing to preserve all the scientific research that's been done.

The fight to preserve facts is detailed in the following article:

Scientists Scramble to Protect Decades of Climate Research Before Trump Takes Office

The next four years are going to be a challenge for America.  

Remember when Hitler's minions burned any books, he deemed contrary to his rule? 

This is the 21st century version of Hitler's purge. The names change, but the hate and ignorance continue.

As it Stands, here's an update to this post: As of May 2026, the second Trump regime has aggressively dismantled domestic climate action, rolling back environmental regulations, defunding climate research programs at NOAA and NASA, and removing climate science data from federal websites.
