In a shocking development, Manchin struck a deal with Schumer after more than a year of hemming and hawing in talks over a number of proposals that had been unable to garner his backing.

Headlining the rejuvenated bill is $369 billion in funding for energy and climate programs over the next 10 years — with the goal of reducing emissions by roughly 40 percent by 2030 — and an additional $300 billion to reduce the deficit. 

So, $37 billion a year solves this problem, thanks, we can forget about it being an issue now.

Yes, it's rounding error on Federal spending, not even that really.  It's absurd to think this can possibly make much difference in gtons CO2 produced in the US.

It will make a little, no doubt, probably, maybe perhaps.  Or not.

It would be cataclysmic IF it happened, really bad.  I thought the theory had died down.

So this won't be producing power in the very near future, due to radical drought.  Gonna be a very expensive paper weight.  I wonder if nearby cities care.

Could this Atlantic current transition be the reason there has been few hurricanes in the Atlantic basin this year in contrast to predictions by Climate alarmists this Spring?

OK, that was sarcasm.  The PBS article mentions that the AMOC current shut down at the start of the Younger Dryas glaciation period due to global temperature rise.  However, it did not discuss the cause of that global temperature rise.   It wasn't humans burning fossil fuels.
