According to the US ambassador to the United Nations, the USA’s president, Donald Trump, does believe that climate change is occurring due to pollution.
An overwhelming majority of climate scientists believe that human activity is the main cause behind the dangerous warming of the planet.
The US ambassador, Nikki Haley, insists that the president is aware of the US’s responsibility and just because they are no longer part of the Paris Climate Agreement does not mean that they no longer care about the environment.
However, the president has, in the past, repeatedly described climate change as nothing more than a hoax.
Haley has asserted that the president is going to look out for the environment but the US is going to do it on their own terms. Haley did not explain why the US did not stay inside the accord and amend US targets.
