ON JUNE 1, 2017, U.S. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP ANNOUNCED HE WILL WITHDRAW THE UNITED STATES FROM THE PARIS CLIMATE AGREEMENT. IN SPITE OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT, THE FACT REMAINS THAT A GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE AGREEMENT UNDER THE UNITED NATIONS WAS ADOPTED IN DECEMBER 2015 IN PARIS.
The hot topic here is that, on various recent occasions, President Trump expressed his skepticism about human-induced climate change. This included a tweet expressing a view that “the concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make
U.S. manufacturing non-competitive,” and various other public manifestations. Trump stated that with his “America First Energy Plan” he would revert all of President Obama´s policies on climate change, which would include cancelling the country’s participation in
the Paris Agreement, ending U.S. funding of the United Nations climate change programs, and abandoning the Clean Power Plan—in order to bring back the coal industry.
