On Monday, 20th January 2025, Donald Trump returned to the White House for his second Presidential term.
An avid climate denier, Trump’s return signals even greater risk to the developing world.
Receding from Global climate action
The US is currently the world’s 2nd largest emitter of Greenhouse Gases. It's one of the nations that is expected to reduce its emissions substantially and follow through with its climate pledges.
