President Trump withdraws the US from the UNFCCC, isolating America as the only nation outside the global climate treaty and threatening climate finance for developing nations.

In a geopolitical earthquake with devastating implications for the planet, President Donald Trump has signed an executive order withdrawing the United States from the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The move leaves the world's largest historical polluter as the only nation on Earth outside the treaty.
The decision, executed in the first week of 2026, fulfills a long-held Trump promise but shocks the global community. It goes beyond exiting the Paris Agreement; it is a total rejection of the foundational 1992 treaty that underpins all global climate cooperation.
This isolationist stance threatens to derail global climate finance—money promised to developing nations like Kenya to adapt to droughts and floods. Without US contributions, the Green Climate Fund faces a massive shortfall.
For Kenya, which contributes less than 0.1% of global emissions but bears the brunt of climate change, this is a betrayal. The US has chosen "America First" at the expense of "Planet Earth." As extreme weather intensifies, the world must now forge a path forward without its most powerful member.
