When the President Donald Trump pulled out of the Paris Climate Agreement, a lot of people were left with questions, including billionaire Richard Branson. "A lot of people in the world are baffled by the American administration's comments," Branson himself is a big proponent of protecting the environment from climate change and has donated a lot of money to that end, in addition to creating his non-profit "Carbon War Room." According to Branson, he is not alone amongst influential figures and companies wanting to make an impact, especially following policy changes by the Trump administration. "Whether it's GE, or whether it's the big oil companies... I haven't come across one business person who doesn't want to get out there and do everything they can to try to compensate for the [Trump] administration's very strange stance,"
