White House climate change webpage disappears after Trump's inauguration

2017-01-21

The graft and grantwhoring party's over
Less than an hour after President Trump took the oath of office on Friday, the White House's webpage on climate change disappeared from the Executive Branch's main site, the latest sign that the new administration will divert resources – and attention – from the issue.

The removal of the page from the White House's website came around the same time the site and other Executive Branch digital platforms were overhauled to reflect the new administration. The Obama Administration's climate change page still exists, but was migrated to a National Archives website.
I have found a suitable replacement at this link.

Now there's a lovely thing, Besoeker. I second the motion.

#2 The team of the remaining Snope agrees with you, Glenmore, and lays it out here. But essentially the article is correct: these things are not priorities to the incoming administration, thank goodness, and those pages will not be reconstituted as they would have been under President Hillary C. It's just that the fact they are not there Right Now is not a signifier of future direction as such.

#1 As I understand it, the Obama Administration website was archived and a new Trump one uploaded, and that such has been standard procedure.
