01:45 Holly Patrick | 1659958790 A bill which would be the largest investment any US government has made to combat the climate crisis has passed the Senate . The Inflation Reduction Act will now head to the House of Representatives , where it is likely to pass if only 9 of Democrats oppose it. If passed, the bill will invest $369bn in climate and clean energy, and will lower healthcare costs including out of pocket spending and insurance premiums.
