Trump withdraws US from Paris climate agreement for second time

President Trump has withdrawn the United States from the Paris climate agreement for a second time. This decision reverses actions taken by President Biden, who reinstated the U.S. in 2021. Trump's administration is also rescinding 78 executive orders from Biden, including those related to climate and artificial intelligence. He has implemented a federal hiring freeze and mandated no new regulations. The U.S. now joins a small group of nations not part of the 2015 accord, which includes Iran and Libya. The withdrawal means the U.S. is likely abandoning its climate aid commitments and emission reduction targets.
