The United States has begun the process of pulling out of the landmark 2015 Paris climate agreement, it was announced Monday. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that he submitted a formal notice to the United Nations. The United Nations will soon set out procedural details for what happens next, UN deputy spokesman Farhan Haq said. 'Long after Trump is out of office his decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris Agreement will be seen as a historic error.' Many critics of the Paris agreement say America is the leader in cutting carbon emissions, but that's not true.
