"The ongoing erosion is estimated to be 25-50 feet per year. Most of the current critical infrastructure is expected to be destroyed by 2030," the Interior Department said in a news release.Alaska Public Media reported
Climate always changes.
These Native Americans probably sensed, then knew about this change long before Biden was elected or any government official ordered the Air Force to take aerial photos! And, furthermore, they STILL know MORE about survival than our government does! THEY were here before the USA!
I'm happy to help those in need. Should have bought that house in Alaska zillow pointed out before I fixed that area code bit
Not nearly enough. We give away a lot more to Ukraine.

How does their relocation work, exactly? Is their an area allotted for them to reside in and build as well? Also, are the other communities getting 5M each relocating too? What’s the story there?
100 million to move a village? I can do it for way less than half. And half the time. Guarantee.
Now, that's ironic. Crat elites have been very busy buying up shore front properties at warmer latitudes.
Which wealthy, corporate, Crat donor wants that land? Is it in the oil industry?
Real question, how have they been impacted
That is damn decent
I dont remember Biden asking me if this is Ok.
Lol
But by all means let's keep drilling in the Arctic
Amazing each of the three warranted $25M to the penny. So glad it wasn’t sanctimonious politics. WHEW!
Because Joe Biden has always known that Climate change is REAL. And that it affects human beings everywhere. Proud of him!
'Endeavor to Persevere.'
I guess their spirit animals didn’t warn them about the threat.

literally lived through Mt St Helens & numerous tremors floods etc in the PNW this is not climate change
Utterly wrong.
in the years to come these relocation fees will be seen as racist because they weren't enough
What a load of crap!! We are paying as if WE caused it. Unreal! CHINA INDIA mass polluters, and still ui can't prove they cause any of it. What a scam.
Cash handouts by Democrats. More inflation coming.
How did 'Global Warming' become 'Local Climate Change'? How much is India & China kicking in of this $75M?
Helping people is great. However.. Pinning 'risk of a potentially big earthquake as the village sits right along [a fault line]' to ClimateChange is too much
Hmmm, I guess coastal erosion and hurricanes never happened before
Oh, the free world...
Yet the elites are buying oceanside property… must be quite the crisis.
drummike2012 A teeny tiny bandaid on a gaping open hemorrhaging wound. Bandaids aren’t needed. Sweeping changes in how we live, what governments fund & subsidize, and an urgent global collective effort to build out renewable energy sources is where we START.
Wow Stole their land again. A few years later the military will be building a new harbor and naval base
So the Government that’s manipulated our climax for over sixty years, is now going to use our tax payers money to fix its mistakes.
White civilization is greater than brown and black tribalism
There is no Climate Change! It’s a scam! Knock it off!
Good, but it is only a fraction of what is needed
Did anyone know where the funding came from? Was it a bill passed by Congress?
Remarkable they each were impacted by exactly $25M. Glad it’s not a number picked out of thin f’ing air.
Why aren't the radical oil executives paying for this?
Sounds like the government is stealing prime coastal property that belongs to the tribes.
Sea levels have been rising for 18,000 years. Plan accordingly.
Hope they start drilling for oil there the next day.
good news 🥳 happy for them
The climate on the Earth has been changing forever there used to be a rainforest in Antarctica. Now it's covered with ice.
The earth doesn't care how much money people have. She's gonna have her way with us and we deserve it.

Finally. Funds are being used to adapt to a warmer world instead of futilely attempting to change its entire climate.
Here’s some cash. To move your gymnasium
From the Biden administration. Try TAX PAYERS.
