Trump's Renewed Climate Policy Challenges: A New Era of Withdrawal

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate agreement for a second time, potentially moving faster than before. This decision could undermine global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as the U.S. is a major polluter. Trump's stance on climate change, which he has called a "hoax," contrasts sharply with the commitments made under the agreement. The U.S. withdrawal could also allow China to gain a competitive edge in green technologies and influence global climate policy discussions.
