So what's the deal with this new CAP Act? Will it really help lower emissions and combat climate change? I'm curious to see how it plays out in the short term.

I dunno about this bill, but it sounds like a waste of money. Why should we be paying for other people's climate plans? This is just another example of government overreach. #NotMyProblem #BigGovernmentSucks Overall, this bill seems like a bad idea and I'm not a fan.
