Despite Donald Trump, the G20 nations (except USA) are sticking to the Paris climate agreement

Guardian 29th June 2019 Theresa May has urged countries to be more ambitious in tackling the climate crisis after Donald Trump reiterated his determination to ditch the
Paris accord.
The prime minister led a session on the environment at the
G20 summit in Osaka, which will be one of her final appearances on the
world stage. In the G20 communique, which was agreed after many hours of
wrangling among the “sherpas”, who represent the group’s member states, 19
of the 20 reiterated their commitment to the Paris accord.
The final wording echoed a statement from the last G20 summit, in Buenos Aires, but
government sources suggested some countries, including the US, India and
China, had tried to water it down. The US president had sought to excise
the reference to the Paris agreement from the communique altogether, with
the help of several other countries, reportedly including Brazil and
Turkey. May said she was pleased there was a communique at all.
