Poll: Few Americans support U.S. withdrawal from Paris Agreement

Fewer than one third of Americans support Pres. Trump’s move to withdraw the U.S. from the Paris climate accord, and 52 percent think withdrawing from the agreement will hurt the U.S. economy in the long run (compared to just 18 percent who say it will help the economy). In this poll conducted one week after Pres. Trump made his announcement, 51 percent of Republicans said they support the U.S. withdrawing from the agreement, while 69 percent of Democrats oppose it.
