Project 2025 proposes breaking up the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the parent agency for the National Weather Service, describing it as “one of the main drivers of the climate change alarm industry.”

… calls for breaking up NOAA, whose climate research it calls “harmful to future U.S. prosperity.” It suggests the Weather Service should “fully commercialize its forecasting operations,” because its data is already used widely by private companies.

… as if those forecasts didn’t start with the government service and then build on it. And how much more would everything cost when everyone has to pay for weather information? Food? Planes? Fish?
Lastly: do you want to HOPE that some private company has enough customers in your area for them to make your forecast? Maybe it is insurance companies worrying about tornadoes, but your area is a mix of several firms (Allstate, Gieco, State Farm, whomever) and they all concentrate their forecast for the regions they dominate.

Despite his denials, there’s no difference.
