Summary

Trump has announced the U.S. withdrawal from the Paris climate accords, citing a focus on domestic energy production and rolling back Biden-era climate policies.

This move, which can be completed in one year, will align the U.S. with nations such as Iran, Libya, and Yemen as the only UN-recognized countries outside the global pact.

Critics warn it undermines global climate efforts, ceding leadership to China, which has aggressively expanded green technologies.

Trump pledged to boost fossil fuels while continuing nuclear power investment.
