Obama pitches $1B climate resilience fund | Fox News:
"President Obama is asking for a $1 billion, taxpayer-funded program to help communities across the country prepare for the effects of climate change.
The fund would need congressional approval and if passed would pay for underwriting granular, community-level preparations and pay for new technologies to adjust to rising sea levels.
The president made the announcement Friday during a visit to drought-stricken California and said the so-called “climate resilience fund” will be included in his proposed fiscal 2015 budget."
