A Door County environmental advocate is lauding Governor Tony Evers’ decision to have Wisconsin joining a group that is fighting climate change.   Wayne Kudick from Fish Creek says by networking with the other 20 states belonging to the U.S. Climate Alliance, Wisconsin will be better able to mitigate and adapt to climate change.  He says Door County and all of Wisconsin will benefit from Gov. Evers’ new cabinet appointments.  

Preston Cole is the newly appointed secretary of the Department of Natural Resources.  Kudick says he is optimistic that Wisconsin can return to being a leader in environmental issues with the direction of the new administration.
