A recent poll reveals that nearly two-thirds of Americans feel the government is insufficient in combating climate change. Many are uninformed about the Inflation Reduction Act, which represents the largest climate investment by any nation. Despite the Biden administration's promotion, around 61% of Americans lack knowledge of the bill, and when informed, about 49% are skeptical of its effectiveness. Environmental policy experts emphasize the need for time and clearer communication for the public to grasp the significance of such legislation in addressing climate issues.
"The Inflation Reduction Act is the largest investment in the fight against climate change by any one nation ever in a single push."
"When made aware of the sweeping legislation, about 49% of Americans said they believed it wouldn't make much of a difference in the battle against climate change."
"Leah Stokes, an environmental policy professor, noted the law 'delivered in a big way on climate,' but still requires time for public understanding."
"Despite millions spent promoting the bill, an estimated 61% of U.S. adults still said they know little to nothing about the measure."
