Trump withdraws #US from world’s most important #climate #treaty
Trump withdraws from #UN Framework Convention on #ClimateChange ( #UNFCCC) and 65 additional UN and other multilateral groups, mostly linked to the environment, renewable energy, development, education, and the promotion of democracy and human rights.
A year after Trump, who last year branded climate change a “con job,” announced that he would pull US from the 2015 Paris climate agreement for the second time.

In addition, the agreement requires the submission of an annual national #climate #pollution inventory, which the #Trump admin notably skipped this year.

The exit from the climate #treaty, & a slew of other international agencies, is another step back from the #US on international cooperation.

The action, if successful, would leave the US out of international #ClimateChange talks & could raise tensions with US #allies for whom #climate action is a priority.

Invoking the #NATO treaties collective defense clause, known as #Article5, under which an attack on one member is regarded as an attack on all, requires the #unanimity of all 32 #allies. The #US, of course, would reject any plea for help by #Denmark — effectively neutering the #treaty.
“Article 5 did not anticipate that the invading country would be a member of NATO,” Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) told reporters asking about bill in #Congress to prohibit #Trump for acting in #Greenland.

The #UnitedStates’ taking #Greenland by force would rip apart the central agreement that underpins the #NATO #military #alliance, of which #Denmark & the #US are both founding members. Under that #treaty, an attack on any member is treated as an attack on all members. #Trump has previously said he would not rule out using the military to take Greenland.
