That's because there isn't an exact metric. If we all do our part then we should see climate change slow down and even hopefully reverse. But I expect the Trump admin had problems with the financing part of the deal [1], such as:
"Developed country Parties shall provide financial resources to assist developing country Parties with respect to both mitigation and adaptation in continuation of their existing obligations under the Convention."
As well having to spend more money:
"As part of a global effort, developed country Parties should continue to take the lead in mobilizing climate finance from a wide variety of sources"
Whereas oil companies provide a cheaper option. It doesn't help that Trump thinks climate change is a hoax too.
