Ocasio-Cortez: Serious climate plan to cost at least $10T

WASHINGTON (AP) — Freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York says any plan to adequately address climate change would cost at least $10 trillion.
The Democrat is the lead author in the House of the Green New Deal, a plan to dramatically cut the nation’s dependence on fossil fuels. While acknowledging the figure “is a ton” of money, she said Wednesday, “I think we really need to get to $10 trillion to have a shot” at slowing climate change.
