U.S. Withdraws from United Nations Convention on Climate Change

What Happened?

The Trump Administration announced that it intended to withdraw the United States from the United Nations Convention on Climate Change. And that the U.S. would withdraw from sixty-five other United Nations and multilateral groups, most of which were involved with renewable energy, climate change, development, education, and the promotion of democracy and human rights. 

The White House issued a statement saying the decision to pull out from a total of 66 international organizations, including thirty-one United Nations groups, was intended to save American taxpayers money and advance Trump’s ‘America First’ agenda.

Why it Matters

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change is one of the central international efforts to address the causes of climate change and to find solutions to it. The U.S. departure from that effort could convince other nations to follow suit, though most countries in Europe are likely to remain committed to the project.

President Trump has described climate change as a ‘con job,’ but the science behind it is more solid than the Trump Administration has publicly acknowledged. The number of extreme weather events has been increasing globally and in the United States, and whether those events are human-caused or not, they are still happening in increasing numbers. NASA data indicates that extreme weather events are becoming more frequent and longer-lasting, especially in the past five years.

Extreme weather also has political ramifications. One of the factors driving mass migration from central America is that damage from severe hurricanes never gets repaired due to lack of funds and government corruption. That region has been hit by several record-setting storms in the past few years, and due to a lack of resources, the damage never gets repaired, leaving entire cities and regions permanently devastated. Other parts of the world have suffered similarly as record-setting storms displaced large numbers of people.

The United States is the single largest contributor to the United Nations, providing an average of fifteen billion dollars annually to the organization. The moves by the Trump Administration will likely decrease that amount, though it remains unclear by exactly how much. While such moves would save American taxpayers a few billion annually, the Trump Administration has called for a whopping $1.5 trillion-dollar annual defense budget, which would more than wipe out any savings from cuts to the U.N. 

How it Affects You

A United Nations spokesman said, ‘The doors remain open for the U.S. to re-enter in the future, as it has in the past with the Paris Agreement.’ That seems unlikely to happen under the current U.S. administration, and President Trump could use climate change focused organizations as political leverage in future international negotiations. For example, the Trump Administration could tell countries looking for U.S. help to get it that they first must leave the same U.N. organizations the U.S. did.
