The ten Senators who represented the United States at the 21st Conference of Parties in 2015, have urged President Donald Trump to reconsider and reverse his decision to withdraw from the historic Paris accord on climate change.
“More than 900 US businesses support keeping the US in the Paris Agreement, including 20 Fortune 500 companies. American businesses need the US Government at the negotiating table to represent their interests,” the 10 Senators wrote in a letter to Trump.
“Their support for the Paris Agreement is evidence that the Agreement is in fact a good deal for America. We are ready to work with you and your administration on advancing these important economic and environmental goals and once again, urge you to reconsider and reverse your decision,” said the Senators in letter to the press.
