According to sources from Trump's transition team, executive orders have already been prepared to withdraw the United States from the agreement, which is the main platform for global action in this area.
The United States, which is the second largest polluter on the planet after China, could significantly weaken collective efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions if it finally withdraws from this international agreement. This step would pose a serious challenge to the global community trying to cope with climate change.
