Former President Donald Trump’s reelection threatens to worsen global climate change by altering the trajectory of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, eroding federal climate research and forecasting, and abdicating America’s leadership role in global climate negotiations.

Why it matters: His return to the White House comes at a time when climate scientists have warned that the Paris Agreement’s warming targets are slipping dangerously out of reach, raising the odds of potentially catastrophic consequences.
