The day one executive orders will make the climate crisis worse

US President Donald Trump on Monday issued an executive order withdrawing the country from the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. The Paris Agreement, which was signed by over 200 countries in December 2015, is aimed at limiting global warming to “well below” 2C and “well below” 3C. However, the agreement states that the process would take a full year.
