Pacific sees Trump decision as "grave moral injustice" Featured

Donald Trump has confirmed he will withdraw the US from the Paris climate change agreement Donald Trump has confirmed he will withdraw the US from the Paris climate change agreement

2 June, 2017. Pacific island groups fighting for climate action have described the US withdrawal from the Paris agreement as a grave moral injustice.

A UN climate conference on November 18 appealed to the "pragmatism" of president-elect Donald Trump, who has threatened to pull the US out of a global pact to rein in global warming. A man wearing a mask portraying newly elected 

The Pacific Islands Climate Action Network said Donald Trump's decision signalled his support for the fossil fuel industry which directly threatened people living in the Pacific islands.

The grouping called for Australia to immediately reaffirm its commitments around the deal which for the first time united most of the world in a single agreement to mitigate climate change.

Donald Trump has confirmed he will withdraw the US from the Paris climate change agreement.

The Co-ordinator of the Pacific Islands Climate Action Network Krishneil Narayan said not even Mr Trump could derail action on climate change.

"Certainly we are really angered by the announcement. The United States is one of the largest carbon polluting countries.

We here in the Pacific island countries are really going to double our action to help with ensuring that the world is going to support the Paris agreement and implement climate action," said Krishneil Narayan.

Mr Narayan said Fiji's presidency of UN climate change talks this year was a great opportunity to ensure this.

    AMERICA FIRST...Trump warns during the 2016 campaign for president. When America is strong, freedom rings our in the world. Rest of the world wants Global Economy, which is the majority of little Banana Republics and dictatorships rule the world like it is in the United Nations.
