United States to Withdraw from Paris Climate Agreement

ai generated text

US President Donald Trump announced the withdrawal of the United States from the Paris climate accord. The move was met with criticism from world leaders and environmental groups. The process of withdrawal is expected to take approximately one year. Trump's decision was motivated by his claim that the agreement was unfair to the US and that other countries, such as China, were not holding up their end of the agreement. He also cited concerns about the impact of the agreement on the US oil and gas industry and the economy. As a result of the withdrawal, the US will join only Iran, Libya, and Yemen as the only countries outside of the global climate agreement.

    1. Trump is risking the climate stability and safety of the planet as part of a culture war political strategy, heedless of billions who will suffer.
    1. We will not turn our back on America's commitments. For our health and our future, we will press forward.
    1. With my actions today, we will end the Green New Deal, and we will revoke the electric vehicle mandate, saving our auto industry.
    2. The United States will not sabotage its own industries while China pollutes with impunity. China uses a lot of dirty energy, but they produce a lot of energy. When that stuff goes up in the air, it doesn't stay there ... It floats into the United States of America after three-and-a-half to five-and-a-half days.
    3. The inflation crisis was caused by massive overspending and escalating energy prices, and that is why today I will also declare a national energy emergency. We will 'Drill, baby, drill!'
    4. The United States will not sabotage our own industries while China pollutes with impunity.
    5. I'm immediately withdrawing from the unfair, one-sided Paris climate rip-off.
    1. Sub-national leaders across the US can continue to show the world that US climate leadership is determined by so much more than who sits in the Oval Office.
    1. In this crucial decade for climate action. This is, of course, devastating.
    2. This could be a signal for others to reduce their commitment on climate mitigation. It could reduce pressure on other big emitting countries like China. ... US emissions play an important role regarding the question if we are about to stay below the 2 degree and 1.5 limit.
    3. That makes it clear that we expect a lot more emissions from the US compared to what Joe Biden had planned.
    1. These vulnerable nations and communities, which have contributed the least to global emissions, will bear the brunt of intensifying floods, rising seas, and crippling droughts.
    1. The US oil and natural gas industry stands ready to work with the new administration to deliver the commonsense energy solutions Americans voted for.
    1. This declaration is more proof that Trump doesn't seem to recognize the real world.
    2. The US is producing more energy, more oil and gas than any country has ever produced.
