President Joe Biden will take a look at Palo Alto, California, on Monday and announce in excess of $600 million in climate investments to help coastal communities all over the state combat weather change, a White House official claimed on Sunday.

The investments will be funded by Biden’s climate and infrastructure bills and will include things like a $575 million challenge to struggle climbing sea concentrations, storm surge and tidal hurricanes, stated the formal, who did not want to be named.

It will also include things like a $67 million financial commitment for California to modernize its electrical grid to decrease the effects of excessive climate activities these as wildfires.

Biden signed a $430 billion bill very last August that was touted as the most important local weather bundle in U.S. history.
