Decent “green” jobs are the future and they must be placed at the heart of the 2030 Agendafor Sustainable Development, Guy Ryder, the Director-General of the International Labour Organization (ILO), said, adding that: “Nothing will more clearly distinguish the first hundred years of the ILO's history from the second than the necessary greening of the world of work.”

EU, China unite behind Paris climate deal as Trump mulls US withdrawal

(CNN)European Union leaders and China vowed Thursday to push forward with the Paris Agreement on climate change as the world waits to see whether US President Donald Trump will pull out of the landmark accord.

Trump has said he will announce his decision on the climate deal later Thursday. Two senior US officials familiar with Trump's plans told CNN on Wednesday that he is expected to withdraw from the Paris accord.

US is the world's second largest emitter of CO2 00:55
Such a move would be a major break from international partners that would isolate the United States in efforts to curb global warming.

Now EU and Chinese leaders have banded together in an unusual alliance that emphasizes the absence of the United States -- the world's second biggest emitter of carbon dioxide after China -- from the playing field.
