UK leaders urged to enhance climate action as Trump withdraws US from Paris Agreement again

Donald Trump has withdrawn the United States from the Paris Agreement on climate change for a second time. This decision follows his initial withdrawal during his first presidency, which was reversed by Joe Biden in 2021. UK leaders are being urged to enhance their climate actions in response. While Downing Street reaffirmed the UK’s commitment to the Paris Agreement, experts noted that the global response to Trump's withdrawal may differ this time, with other countries continuing to pursue climate initiatives. Critics of the withdrawal emphasize the potential negative impacts on climate efforts. They highlight the need for strong leadership from the UK and other nations to address the climate crisis effectively.
