Loss of winter isn't just a story about❄️. It is about our health, traditions, food, family & community. This story expanded my own community & strengthened my resolve to act. We are all part of the solution. A dip in a frozen lake brought that into even greater focus for me. https://twitter.com/DavidSchechter/status/1628076387394326530
Oh for crying out loud.
It's times like these that make hazard mitigation planning feel (extra) worthwhile! Read about U-Spatial's work on that front here: https://z.umn.edu/8f6y
