Scientists and many other concern people have gathered to save data and information about climate from government websites. Many people believed that Trump might erase the climate related information after taking office.

Wired has reported that last Saturday, in University of California in Berkeley, about 200 adults have come together and work on saving government climate data. There were students, scientists and hackers in the Doe library as well as other like-minded people who think Trump will erase those data that have gathered and save government data to other websites.

Scientists and professors all around the world are afraid that Trump will whitewash all the publicly available, taxpayer-funded scientific research. Those government data about climate change are very important that is why different groups like DataRefuge and the Environmental Data and Governance Initiative have organized a 'hackathon'. The people involved will collect all data from NASA, specifically earth science department, and will archive it.

They have also started building robust systems for monitoring the changes that occur in the government websites. The group has also set wed crawlers to protect the easily-copied government pages. Coders have sent their text to a digital library made up of billions of pictures of the web pages called Internet Archive.

Though there were setbacks like what one coder named Tek ran into, they still continued and tried to find other ways to save the government data. There were also moments that non-hackers came across '404 Page Not Found', when it comes to this, the non-coders would just hope that those government data were already backed up by other coders.

According to The Verge, Meteorologist Eric Holthaus has asked scientists to put in government data regarding climate change to a Google spreadsheet. He wants the data to be copied and saved to other independent servers.

This saving of government data regarding climate change have started before Trump assumed his office. Anti-Trump people were worried that Trump and his 'non-climate change/global warming appointees' will just shrug off the problem.
