Trump Withdraws US from Paris Climate Agreement
Trump announces the US will withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement, calling it a bad deal for American workers and an infringement on US sovereignty. The withdrawal process takes three years to complete. Trump promises to renegotiate better terms, though no renegotiation occurs. Over 200 US cities, states, and businesses pledge to uphold Paris goals anyway.
