Let me be clear: The president’s support for cruel, dictatorial regimes and disastrous environmental rollbacks is unraveling our country’s position as a global leader.
I was there in Paris almost four years ago when 190 countries came together to pass a historic climate change agreement. The United States played a pivotal role by bringing countries to the table and leading through example. By withdrawing our country from the Paris Agreement, Mr. Trump is sending a message to the world — America cannot be trusted.
As president, I will not only rejoin the Paris Agreement, I will make addressing the climate crisis the heart of my foreign policy.
We will also work toward eliminating our dependence on fossil fuels, expand our diplomatic efforts, and hold corporations and countries accountable for environmental crimes against humanity.
