So despite the pressure from the US and global energy industry (including Exxon and the rest of Big Oil), the World Coal Association (!), Monsanto, Dupont, Unilever, Nestle, Whirlpool, General Mills, GE, the G7, China, the Pope, Ivanka and the majority of US voters, Trump in his wisdom has decided to take the US back 20 years. In doing so he jeopardizes a renewable energy industry that employs almost 800,000 people - ten times as many as the coal industry. 

The US will now find itself falling further and further behind the Chinese. 

Fortunately, many US States will ignore Trump and continue to de-carbonize.
