After returning from his overseas trip, which the media has nearly unanimously declared as a disaster, President Donald Trump continues to poke the world in the eye. The current leader of the free world just announced that he was going to be withdrawing the US from the Paris Climate Agreement, which nearly every nation had signed.
According to reports, in the days leading up to the announcement, The White House was divided into two camps. The Washington Post wrote that some were urging the president to stick to the agreement while others, most likely those in the pocket of Big Oil were all for backing out of the accord.
Supposedly, Ivanka Trump herself was in favor of holding up America’s end of the bargain. Predictably, Environmental Protection Agency Director Scott Pruitt was not.
It wasn’t just members of Trump’s cabinet who participated in the event either. Private companies, dozens of them, had sent letters urging the administration to keep to the accord. These included eBay, DuPont, and Nike. In fact, even ExxonMobil was all for staying, which is certainly not what some would have thought considering the company’s main source of income.
Most astonishing of all is the fact that Pope Francis himself had appealed for the US to keep the agreement. The pontiff even presented the US president with a 2015 encyclical regarding climate change. None of this could sway Trump from breaking the country’s word and backing out of the accord.
Experts are already predicting several fallouts from this momentous action, including instability and uncertainty in the fossil fuel and renewable energy market, Business Insider reports. This is a terrible prospect for both industries as it would constitute a tug of war on what should have been a done deal.
According to the numbers, green energy is where the future of employment is at. By withdrawing from the Paris Agreement, President Trump just created chaos in every market in the world and might even slow job growth in the growing renewable industry.
