How the Trump administration's withdrawal from the Paris climate accord could affect the U.S.'s participation in a global effort to mitigate climate change:

Now that the Trump administration has taken formal steps to remove the United States from the United Nations' Paris climate accord, many are wondering how that will affect the country's participation in a global effort to mitigate climate change.Sponsored by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the accord was created in December 2015 with a goal to ensure that global temperatures do not increase more than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, which the U.N.

— The importance of averting, minimizing and addressing loss and damage associated with the adverse effects of climate change, such as extreme weather, as well as recognizing the role of sustainable development to reduce the risk of loss and damage. The U.N. states that"appropriate mobilization," provision of financial resources, a new technology framework and"enhanced capacity-building" are necessary to reach the"ambitious goals" the agreement put in place.

Each country sets its own nonbinding targets for emissions and must regularly report its progress to reduce them to the U.N.

Trump Is CORRUPT AF..

If China, India and Russia don’t pursue cutting carbon emissions as aggressively as western countries are doing its like they hold the front door open and we pay the electric bill. No thank you.

Let the countries that are the biggest polluters clean up! The U.S. has done great cleaning up our air and water! Tell the truth ABC if you can!

How about worrying over & protecting victims of pedophilia? Not a priority, eh?

How abc protected a pedophile and powerful politicians because lack of evidence. But call for the head of a high school student with a maga hat for smiling and saying nothing and destroy a good mans reputation from 40 year old hear-say accusations. EpsteinCoverup

You’re “news” department hasn’t had any credibility since Peter Jennings signed off for the final time. I can only assume every person who works at your network now is in full support of child rape and human trafficking.

Again TRUMP is RIGHT! This was something Obama Screwed America with like 98% of his Progressive Policies!

Climate change is a myth!

So abc therefore disney covered up for epstein. Wow. Disney covering up for child predators. Wow.

Meanwhile, your moderators ban people for having different views on your comments section (diqus) AND you also covered up for a pedophile for 3 years to protect the Clintons and Prince Andrew. Shame. Cancelling Disney trip. Disney

Trump is a disaster for the environment. Apparently he thinks the air he breathes is better than the air that kills kids and old people with asthma.

Spoiler alert: it sucks ass

Fakenews network. Running smear campaigns against good people but protecting pedophiles.

ABC News provided cover for pedophiles

America's green rating has gotten better every year since Trump has been in office! Don't use plastic straws! SMFH ClimateChange

I say shut off the air supply to the oval office, the residence and Trump Hotels and resorts whenever Trump steps foot in them. This should stop a lot of unnecessary toxicity into the atmosphere.

Epstein.

Stop the BS mind control. Never, ever, ever will I believe that your reporting of news is true.

Dang that’s crazy... EpsteinCoverup

💪💪

i'd prefer you run the story AmyRobach did. also want to know who spiked the story and why. the bs abt not meeting your 'standards' doesn't fly after the smollet interview or the fake syrian bombing footage. you have lost all credibility EpsteinCoverup

Climate change is natural and its not the US responsibility to pay for the majority of the 'accord' which we were.

Hey ABC..... Did you see the photos from India today? How come that Greta kid never talks about them or China or Africa or the Philippines? 🖕😎🖕

Produce the research.

Sadly, we’re no longer a trustworthy ally and cannot be trusted to negotiate in good faith or honor our commitments. I couldn’t blame the rest of the world if they collectively decided to move on without us.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight.
