Trump signs order to withdraw U.S. from Paris climate agreement

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement. This decision marks a significant shift, as the U.S. was previously committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions alongside other nations. The Paris Agreement, established in 2016, aims to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius. The U.S. will now join Libya, Yemen, and Iran as countries not participating in this international effort. The withdrawal has drawn criticism from climate groups, who argue it undermines global climate action. Experts express concern that this move may influence other nations to reconsider their commitments to climate initiatives.
