Elon Musk dumps Trump after he leaves Paris Climate Accord
- 7 years ago
One prominent member on Donald Trump's advisory councils is leaving just as the president announced his plan to pull out of the Paris climate accord. The Tesla CEO and SpaceX founder Trump has already rolled back a few Obama-era energy regulations that limited American companies. Trump also can't technically withdraw from the agreement until November 2019, but can speed up the process by abandoning the underlying Senate-approved climate treaty that the agreement is linked to.
