First post here. I’ve been lurking for a while until I had enough money saved to build a serious setup but with the CDC website going down I guess I’ve run out of time. Climate data is extremely important to me and I don’t even know where to start archiving or what is important but I expect information on climate change will be sufficiently inconvenient to the Trump admin that it’ll come down soon as well. I’ve also considered the fact that a lot of climate data is kept by universities and that will be harder for the White House to remove. I feel overwhelmed. If anyone could give me ideas on where to start or if climate data is stored in enough places and by enough different entities that it will be around for a while. Also just generally, what do I do? I don’t have the money for terabytes of storage space. I’ve got a desktop PC with about 1TB and a laptop.
