The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)'s climate and clean energy provisions have led to 330+ funded projects.
These projects have created a tremendous amount of investments and manufacturing jobs, especially in districts represented by Republican members of Congress #CCLforIRA

One of my in-laws replied to an IG story I posted about the fires and climate change, saying that most wildfires are started by arson/people with mental illness.

Disasters are going to get more severe and more frequent, and it’s no surprise that this year’s federal price tag is exceeds 100 billion dollars. Climate action is way way cheaper than climate inaction.
