💨 Abstract

climate chief Simon Stiell criticized the U.S. decision to withdraw from a key climate treaty, calling it a "colossal own goal." He warned that this move will negatively impact the U.S. economy, jobs, and living standards as climate-related disasters like wildfires and floods worsen. Stiell emphasized that while other nations are advancing climate cooperation, the U.S. will be left less secure and prosperous.
