I'M ERIN CLARK.
DAN: I'M DAN GREEN.
WE START TONIGHT WITH PRESIDENT
TRUMP'S ANNOUNCMENT TO PULL THE
U.S. OUT OF THE PARIS CLIMATE
ACCORD.
ERIN: PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP
MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT JUST A
COUPLE HOURS AGO, FULFILLING A
CAMPAIGN PROMISE WHILE ENDING A
MAJOR OBAMA DEAL.
THE MOVE COMES DESPI
OPPOSITION FROM SOME IN HIS OWN
CIRCLE, INCLUDING HIS DAUGHTER,
IVANKA, AND THE SECRETARY OF
STATE, WHO BOTH URGED HIM
STAY IN, BUT THE PRESIDENT SAYS
IT WAS POOR NEGOTIATING BY
PRESIDENT OBAMA THAT FORCED HIM
TO ACT.
PRES. TRUM WE ARE GETTING OUT,
BUT WE WILL START TO NEGOTIATE
AND WE WILL SEE IF WE CAN MAKE A
DEAL THAT IS FAIR.
ERIN: DOZENS OF MAJOR AMERICAN
COMPANIES LOBBIED THE PRESIDENT
TO KEEP THE U.S. IN THE DEAL,
SAYING DOING ANYTHING ELSE WOULD
COST AMERICAN JOBS.

FUTURE.

THRIVING IN MONTEREY COUNTY AS
WELL.
COMPANIES LIKE BRIGHT FUTURE
SOLAR ENERGY ARE SEEING A BOOM.
OPENING THEIR DOORS IN SALINAS
THREE YEARS AGO, THE COMPANY IS
NOW OUTFITTING 100 HOMES AND 30
BUSINESSES A YEAR WITH SOLAR
PANELS.

STANDS WITH OTHER JURISDICTIONS
IN CALIFORNIA IN TRYING TO
REDUCE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS,
PROVIDE A HEALTHY AND
SUSTAINABLE PLACE FOR OUR
