Trump's Second Term: Implications for Global Climate Action

With Donald Trump back in power, experts warn of possible severe impacts on global climate action, particularly regarding international agreements like the Paris Accord. Concerns are raised about Trump's long-standing dismissal of climate science and potential moves to undo U.S. climate regulations and withdraw from the United Nations climate framework. While immediate actions may slow decarbonization efforts, long-term corporate investments in clean technologies may continue regardless of administrative changes. The U.S. climate position may shift, pressuring global leaders to adjust their responses to U.S. actions.
