GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE – WHAT IS GOING ON?  PART 2

Last Sunday we had a preliminary look at the issue of climate change. This Sunday we will briefly examine some projected effects of global climate change some of which we, in Wisconsin, may not be aware of at all.  If we are aware do we understand that we or our grandchildren might be directly affected?
