President Biden's administration announced on Friday they wish to invest $575 million in projects to help coastal communities adapt to climate change.
The proposal, which would fall under the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s Climate-Ready Coasts initiative, would fund 19 projects along the seaboard and Great Lakes regions. Overall the investments would cover 15 states, as well as the U.S. Virgin Islands and Micronesia.
