US President Donald Trump predicted a retreat in global warming. RIA Novosti reports.
“It's starting to get colder. Just watch. I don’t think that science really knows, ”the American leader said during a meeting with the leadership of the state of California.
Earlier, Trump has repeatedly expressed skepticism about the facts that confirm global climate change. The president also called the researchers “money-sucking smart guys.”
In August 2017, the United States withdrew from the Paris Climate Agreement. It was signed in 2015 and provides for the allocation of $ 100 billion to developing countries to solve climate problems. The agreement replaced the Kyoto Protocol, which was adopted in 1997.
