Trump's DOE removes 6,000 energy conservation pages amid US heatwave
The US Department of Energy under the Trump administration has deleted approximately 6,000 web pages related to energy conservation, according to The Verge. The removed content included practical guidance on thermostat settings, water conservation, and home insulation. The deletions came after Republican lawmakers expressed anger over a government recommendation to set air conditioning to 78 degrees Fahrenheit. The purge coincides with a record-breaking heat wave currently affecting the United States. The deleted pages are now only accessible through the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
