    US withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement / Greater Bay Airlines flights cancellation saga

    On Thursday's Backchat, we talk about the implications of US President Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement.

    For the second time in a decade, the world's top historic emitter of greenhouse gases will be outside of the global pact against climate change, joining Iran, Libya and Yemen as the only countries not taking part.
    Whilst expected, the new administration's decision has drawn strong criticism both at home and abroad, with environmentalists betting on hopes that individual States and corporations would keep playing their part.
    President Trump has repeatedly argued that the agreement was detrimental to the US economy, a claim refuted by some of his closest allies.
    At 9:30, we discuss yet another Executive Order which will pave way for the US exit from the World Health Organisation (WHO).
    And after 9:45, we speak to an aviation sector representative to comment on on the spate of cancellations affecting Greater Bay Airlines flights.
