Trump prepares withdrawing from Paris climate agreement, NYT reports

(Reuters) – U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team has prepared executive orders and proclamations on withdrawing from the Paris climate agreement and shrinking the size of some national monuments to allow more drilling and mining, the New York Times (NYSE:NYT) reported on Friday.

Trump is also expected to end a pause on permitting new natural gas export terminals, and revoke a waiver that allows California and other states to have tighter pollution standards, according to the report.

Some people on the transition team are discussing moving the headquarters of the Environmental Protection Agency out of Washington, the report said, citing people involved in the discussions.
