Abstract

The issue of climate change is scorching to discuss; Greenhouse Gas Emissions produced by humans themselves have a major impact on the earth. The Paris Agreement was created to slow the pace of climate change by binding participating countries to commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. During the Barack Obama administration, foreign policy believed in and supported the Paris Agreement's cooperation in inhibiting the pace of climate change. In contrast to the next period, which was continued by President Donald Trump, who had a realistic nature and was skeptical of climate change. This is one of the supporting factors in understanding the United States' foreign policy towards the Paris agreement under the Trump presidency.
