Sen. Nelson re: Paris climate agreement

Posted on May 31, 2017

Following is a statement from U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) on news today that President Trump will likely withdraw from the Paris climate agreement in the coming days:
“Sea-level rise caused by the Earth heating up is a real threat to Florida. If the U.S. isn’t going to do its part to combat climate change, then the rest of the world won’t do theirs and millions of Floridians living along the coast will be at risk.” 
Nelson and several other senators sent a letter to Trump last week urging him not to withdraw from the agreement. A copy of that letter is available here.
