And then as we continue to collect real-time data, that turns into then that historic climatological data.

So we can continue to monitor those trends We do continue to see climate change impacting Wisconsin, like less ice cover on the lakes, a shorter ice season over Lake Mendota, Lake Monona, warmer winters that are impacting the cranberry growers.

So it's something that is going to really be an impact to Wisconsin is climate change.

And we are monitoring that with our data and that data.

The challenge is meant to help us better understand what life is like for people who don't drive because of a disability, age, income, any number of reasons or maybe just a preference.

This body has made great strides on supporting infrastructure that makes transportation possible without driving, including we've supported progress in improving a multimodal infrastructure along Lake Monona's lakeshore here in downtown Madison.

And through the work of this board and our commissions and the county administration, we've made other improvements that make our community more accessible.

There's always more we can do.

Lake Monona, fantastic bluegill fishery down there.

The musky fishing has turned on.

But, you know, kind of sharing that and like resolving to continue the fight.

But then also while I was in Wisconsin, there was a lake right next to this conference center, Lake Monona.

And I went fishing one day and there was these little bluegills in there, little teeny fish, but fun to catch and just to kind of get some fresh air.

And I started talking to this woman who was retired that had come down from Milwaukee, like an hour and a half away.
