MISSOULA, Mont. President Obama will announce a series of climate change initiatives on Wednesday.
The actions, involving a variety of federal agencies, were among the recommendations of the presidents State, Local and Tribal Leaders Task Force on Climate Preparedness, a group of 26 officials who have worked since November to develop the proposals.
One of the projects involves shoring up the power supply during climate catastrophes, and the Department of Agriculture on Wednesday will award $236.3 million.
The United States Geological Survey and other federal agencies will spend $13.1 million to develop advanced three-dimensional mapping data.
The new initiatives are part of a broader White House push to build support for Mr. Obamas climate agenda.
Despite the pushback from coal country, Mr. Obama hopes to build political support for the plan by highlighting the local damage that climate change is expected to cause.

This is the fourth or fifth time Obama has announced a set of “climate change initiatives.”

Looks like he’s doing no real damage here, just spreading more money around to his cronies.

"Despite the pushback from coal country, Mr. Obama," with his more influential natural gas investor constituents, is switching the coal-fired plants to natural gas. You see, it wasn't about wind mills or solar panels after all. Despite the big dumps of heaping propaganda, it's bipartisan.

"...$13.1 million to develop advanced three-dimensional mapping data that allow localities to draft strategies in responding to weather-related disasters."
With 3-D maps, they could attack the weather and stop it from changing, you know.
