Funding for Climate Change

The congress is responsible for authorizing laws to address the climate challenge and appropriating funding for relevant programs. Marketing approaches to climate change would require Congress to enact new legislation. Congress is also responsible for overseeing the executive branch and ensuring that the administration follows the law.

So why aren't they implementing more laws and funding into helping our climate? Why isn't protection acted upon more? We need to protect the Earth the main way is to take action.
