据Sputniknews网2月19日报道
2017年6月，美国前总统特朗普宣布美国退出巴黎气候协议，但其政府并未发出正式通知，直到去年11月才正式退出该协议。
特朗普总统宣布退出2015年巴黎气候协议后，美国将重新加入该协议。
在新总统拜登就任首日签发一系列行政命令后，华盛顿于2月19日正式宣布将重新加入该协议，
拜登特殊气候变化特使约翰·克里和国务卿安东尼·布林肯在推特上宣布，美国将重新加入拜登作为奥巴马总统副总统时期签署的该协议。
该举动是拜登就任总统后修改特朗普时期一系列政策的最新举措。
去年9月，拜登将美国西海岸爆发的火灾归咎于特朗普，称他是“气候纵火犯。”
US Re-Joins Paris Climate Accord Months After Ex-President Trump Pulled Out
Former president Donald Trump announced the US withdrawal from the pact in June 2017. But his administration did not give formal notice until two-and-a-half years later, and the US only formally left the pact last November.
The US has re-entered the Paris Climate Accord — just months after former president Donald Trump pulled out of the 2015 pact.
Washington formally re-joined the agreement on Friday in line with one of the many executive orders signed by new President Joe Biden on his first day in office last month.
Biden’s special climate change envoy John Kerry and Secretary of State Antony Blinken took to Twitter to hail the return to the accord, signed when Biden was vice-president to Barack Obama.
The move is the latest in a series of reversals of Trump administration policies that are coming to define Biden’s presidency.
Trump announced the US withdrawal from the accord in June 2017, in line with his 2016 election campaign pledges, saying it put the country “at a permanent disadvantage”. But it was not until November 2019 that his administration gave a formal one-year’s notice of its intention to leave, which came into force on November 4 2020 — the day after election day.
In September last year, Biden blamed Trump for wildfires that broke out on the US west coast, calling the then-president a “climate arsonist”.
