Trump 'will definitely pull out of Paris climate change deal'

  • 7 years ago
President Trump is expected to sign an executive order within days that will pull America out of the Paris agreement, which aims to combat climate change. The news was made public by Myron Ebell, a former climate change adviser to Donald Trump who took charge of the President’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) transition team. "[The US would] clearly change its course on climate policy...[Mr. Trump is] pretty clear that the problem or the crisis has been overblown and overstated...He could do it by executive order tomorrow, or he could wait and do it as part of a larger package. There are multiple ways and I have no idea of the timing.
