2024 US Presidency – Here’s How It Happened!”
Donald Trump has been elected the 47th President of the United States, marking a dramatic political comeback. His victory, following a tumultuous first term, raises concerns globally, particularly regarding climate change.
Trump’s re-election is seen as a major setback for international climate efforts, especially as the U.S. steps back from its role in reducing carbon emissions. Environmental groups like Bellona warn that under Trump, the U.S. will no longer lead in combating climate change, reversing progress made under President Biden’s green initiatives.
With the U.S. retreating, Europe is expected to take a stronger leadership role in the global climate fight. The EU’s Green Deal aims to make the continent climate-neutral by 2050, and as the U.S. backslides, Europe will become crucial in driving emissions reduction and green tech development. This shift could also position the EU as a more dominant player in global energy and economic discussions.
As the climate crisis intensifies, Europe’s response will be under global scrutiny, with the EU now tasked with leading the charge on climate action.
