>Acknowledging
that climate change is a common concern of humankind,
Parties
should, when taking action to address climate change, respect, promote and consider their
respective obligations on human rights,
the right to health, the rights of
indigenous peoples,
local communities, migrants, children, persons with disabilities and people in vulnerable
situations and the right to development, as well as gender equality, empowerment of
women and intergenerational equity,
That doesn't sound like it has a whole lot to do with climate change. It could potentially be used to force the United States to accept migrants, which Trump has opposed.
EDIT:
From the White House's Facebook page,
"The United States will withdraw from the Paris Climate Accord but begin negotiations to re-enter either the Paris Accord, or an entirely new transaction, on terms that are fair to the United States, its businesses, its workers, its people, its taxpayers."
