President Donald Trump has wasted no time dismantling climate policies and promising a new era of fossil-fuel dominance, withdrawing the US from the Paris Agreement on his first day back in office.

President Donald Trump said Monday he will again withdraw the United States from the landmark Paris climate agreement, dealing a blow to worldwide efforts to combat global warming and once again distancing the U.S. from its closest allies.

Executive orders are regularly used by incoming presidents to kick off their administrations. The orders - the most formal type of “executive actions,” which derive their power from Article II of the Constitution - are official statements from the president about how US federal agencies are to use their resources,

One of the most prominent actions was a mandate requiring federal employees to return to their offices five days a week, ending remote work.Donald Trump, Executive orders, Mexico, Cuba, Paris climate agreement,

There are 50 to 100 expected executive orders. Many will focus on boosting fossil fuels and reversing climate policy.

Trump's executive order called for an immediate withdrawal from the Paris Agreement. The agreement requires one year notice, but there's room for interpretation.

When Trump announced the U.S. withdrawal from the climate agreement in 2017, the move reverberated around the globe. Nearly 200 nations had committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions under the pact when it was created in 2015, and they had set ambitious targets to keep global temperature rise well below 2°C, and ideally below 1.5°C.

Trump signed an executive order that begins the process of withdrawing from the Paris Climate Agreement, which he also did during his first term.
