Project 2025 Video Says Feds Should ‘Eradicate’ Climate Change References

"A training video associated with Project 2025 — a controversial playbook for a future conservative presidency by the right-wing Heritage Foundation — calls for eliminating references to climate change across the federal government.

The video was published online this weekend by news outlets ProPublica and Documented, shared with the news outlets by a person who had access to them.

ProPublica and Documented reported the clip was part of Project 2025’s Presidential Administration Academy, which seeks to prepare future political appointees to be part of a conservative administration.

In the climate-related video, Bethany Kozma, who was deputy chief of staff at the U.S. Agency for International Development during the Trump administration, said:  “If the American people elect a conservative president, his administration will have to eradicate climate change references from absolutely everywhere.”"
