Recent directives from the Trump administration have led to the removal of several climate and health resources from federal websites. Fortunately, many organizations have stepped up to preserve these resources and data. You can find them below. The Consortium will update this page as frequently as possible. If there is a resource you don’t see reflected here, please let us know at info@ms2ch.org.
HHS Health Sector Climate Pledge
This webpage was created as part of an effort by Health Care Without Harm and Practice Greenhealth to preserve the information and resources of the HHS Health Sector Climate Pledge, an initiative started in 2022 under the Biden Administration.
Public Environmental Data Partners
The Public Environmental Data Partners project is committed to preserving and providing public access to federal environmental data. Relevant tools that are currently available include:
- Archived Data
- CDC Resources (Social Vulnerability Index, Environmental Justice Index, CDC Environmental Justice Index County Map Reports, Data from the Social Vulnerability Index)
- EPA’s EJScreen
- EPA’s Environmental Justice Analysis Multisite
- EPA EJ Grants
- FEMA’s Future Risk Index
- Local Investment Map for Demonstration and Deployment Projects
- The Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool
Future Risk Index
This is a rebuilt version of FEMA’s Future Risk Index, which was released on Dec. 12, 2024, and taken down on Jan. 19, 2025. It is the first free tool to show how much climate change will cost American communities. The Future Risk Index adds a climate change multiplier to FEMA’s National Risk Index, which measures the economic impact of natural hazards. The Future Risk Index shows how those impacts change when you take climate change into account.
Other Access to Data Sets
