Eco-Action Tuesdays- UW-Madison Badger Talks: Warming Winters in Wisconsin

For some, the recent mild winters have felt like a reprieve, but what does this shift mean for our beautiful state and the people who depend on the winter season for their livelihood?

Amanda Latham, a Wisconsin State Climatology Office Climate Outreach Specialist, will discuss how Wisconsin winters are changing and the impacts seen in agriculture, the environment, and the economy.

Adults and teens are welcome to attend. There will be free refreshments and a door prize. Eco-Action Tuesdays is sponsored by MGE.

This presentation is part of the Badger Talks program, provided by UW-Madison.

Please note that we will meet at Aldo Leopold Nature Center, 330 Femrite Dr., Monona.
