Remote Military sites available for research, 1981- Reagan elected, nearly all environment funding cut. ???? United States emitting 20% of world's CO2 emissions in 2010, 1997- Kyoto Protocol signed -U.S. has yet to sign to this day Why does it matter for the plants and animals in Minnesota? As lakes warm, there will be less lakes deep enough to have a cold water environment to support walleye., 1981- Al Gore picks up interest in climate ???? Al Gore collaborates in the production of "An Inconvenient Truth", 1997- Kyoto Protocol signed -U.S. has yet to sign to this day Why does it matter for the plants and animals in Minnesota?

Potentially more intense rain storms, flooding the river near your house., 1997- Kyoto Protocol signed -U.S. has yet to sign to this day Why does this matter for you? Pontially longer heat waves in the summer, This is where the roots of Earth Day took place ???? Late 1970s- First congress climate talk, Remote Military sites available for research ???? Analyzer installed at Mauna Loa, Antarctica , and Scripps and Keeling Begins to collect data, 1997- Kyoto Protocol signed -U.S. has yet to sign to this day Why does this matter for you?

The trees in your backyard may no longer be suited to survive in this area. Trips to the boundary waters will include a lot more oak trees., Climate Change influences temperature, intensity of storms, and weather patterns. Why does this matter for you? Zones for growing where you can grow certain crops will change.
