The federal government is giving Pennsylvania a down payment to plan how to best adapt to and mitigate climate change locally.

In Harrisburg on Friday, state and federal officials said Pennsylvania will get about $6 million to create priority climate action plans.

The commonwealth will receive up to a $3 million Climate Pollution Reduction Grant through the program set up by the Inflation Reduction Act.

The resulting plans can include things like installing air quality monitoring systems, plugging old oil and gas wells, or converting school bus fleets to electric vehicles.

The plans will make the state eligible for grants from a pool of $4.6 billion to carry out the work.

“The planning dollars need to come to fruition in a plan and a project that just makes sense, that you’re identifying a significant need, and you’re driving the right resources to that need to make a difference and hopefully measure some outcomes,” Negrin said.

That sounds just like something Kamala might say. Lots of words and not much meaning.

What is the Feral Government plan for people like Al Gore and John Effin’ Kerry to divest themselves of their extra waterfront estates,
McMansions and private Jumbo Jets and reduce their carbon footprints to that of the average taxpayer?

6 million is just enough to bait the hook so they can fish for billions more. What a bonanza for the climate fraudsters.

From the article: "The resulting plans can include things like installing air quality monitoring systems, plugging old oil and gas wells, or converting school bus fleets to electric vehicles."

That'd be dumb even here in Alabama where EV's work well only for certain use cases and most of us EV owners have an ICE car for the times an EV won't do. Being 100% dependent on EV's would be bad. All the worse up north in PA where it gets pretty cold in the winter, especially in the morning (think school bus routes in the morning).

Wouldn’t surprise me if the ‘zombie’ drug addicts (open border, cartel/chinese fentanyl products) have 100% vote turnout.
