Paris Climate Accord

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Officials in North Dakota's coal industry say they won't back off from carbon capture initiatives despite President Donald Trump's decision to pull the U.S. out of the Paris climate accord.

In a mid-afternoon Rose Garden speech, President Donald Trump announced that the United States will pull out of the Paris climate agreement reached in 2015, which set out to limit the world's carbon emissions and slow the pace of global warming.
