For more than two years President Donald Trump has talked about pulling the United States out of the landmark Paris climate agreement. Starting Monday, he finally can do something about it. The terms of the deal say no country can withdraw in the first three years. So Monday is the first time the U.S. could actually start the withdrawal process, which begins with a letter to the United Nations. And it doesn’t become official for a year after that, which leads to the day after the election.
