Germany Is Building a Digital Noah's Ark for US Climate Data
Original: Germany Is Building a Digital Noah’s Ark for US Climate Data
Germany is reportedly creating an archive to preserve United States climate data, described as a digital Noah's Ark. The project is understood as a safeguard against the potential loss or removal of federal climate datasets, allowing scientists to keep access to long-term environmental records regardless of what happens to US government databases.
Why now: Concerns that US federal climate data could be deleted or altered are driving interest in backup efforts abroad.
