Veerabhadran Ramanathan, Scripps Institution of Oceanography Distinguished Professor of Climate and Atmospheric SciencesOf course, the climate crisis demands lot more than what IRA can offer. ... But we should [not] let the perfect become the enemy.
I mean, it's truly incredible. And there's a significant investment in kind of the frontline communities, communities who are most impacted.

This is hundreds of billions of dollars less than the initial ask in what we were initially promised, along with having a lot of handouts to the fossil fuel industry.
