Around $50 billion of President Joe Biden's infrastructure package is marked for climate resilience -- replacing roads to withstand extreme rainfall, treating forests to prevent wildfires and shoring up reservoirs that sank to new lows this year amid incredible drought.
As climate disasters become more costly, federal officials say they are itching to use the money to reinforce America's infrastructure before those disasters strike. "We have projects that have been unfunded for five and 10 years in many cases," Robert Bonnie, senior adviser for climate at the US Department of Agriculture, told CNN."We have a lot of places where we literally have projects ready to go; we [didn't] have the funding to implement them.
So what you are saying is? This money will be used to fund projects that have been underfunded for the last 10 years. Projects like forest maintenance? I thought the apparent increase in forest fires was caused by climate change only?
They all but gutted much of the actual climate concerns in the bill so...hold your breath. You're going to need to.

US Catholic bishops may dodge rebuke of Biden over abortionSome Catholic bishops in the U.S. have said they would deny Communion to President Joe Biden for his support of abortion rights. But the bishops' national conference appears likely to avoid direct criticism of Biden. Yet, they say nothing about the racism and poverty that permeates every part of this countries fiber, hence they should be paying taxes as they’re politicians more than followers of Christ. Do the Bishops comment at all about the millions of American children, their thousands of Priests, molested over hundreds of years? Priorities! CatholicPriestsHurtOurKids TomMooney FactsMatter I don't think a group that perpetuates sooooooo much pedophilia/abuse/murder should have a say in anything tbh
