MADISON, WI –-(AmmoLand.com)- Researchers predict climate changes in Wisconsin, recyclers celebrate 20 years of recycling law, winter road crews share ways to keep make roads safer with less salt, and kids of all ages find a sweet treat in the February issue of Wisconsin Natural Resources magazine.

Longtime Wisconsinites believe they’ve seen it, and new research proves them right: the state’s climate is changing. In this issue, a team of scientists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies predict changes that could profoundly affect the state’s natural resources, economy and sense of place.

Then, a roundtable of some of the state’s top players in Wisconsin recycling recall how the law developed 20 years ago, discuss why recycling programs have been so successful, and speculate what recycling trends might create business opportunities in the future.

And with the cold and snow upon us, road crews are hoping new de-icers and carefully timed applications and calibrated equipment will give them a chance to keep roads clearer and safer with less salt.

A “Regional Reads” story offers suggestions to kick back and enjoy books about Wisconsin’s roots, routes and rituals, while a story on the MacKenzie Environmental Center in Poyette takes readers outdoors to get sticky and savor maple syrup making up-close.

The issue also contains three inserts: the annual reminder to Conservation Patrons to renew their licenses, a poster on ways to hone your recycling habits and a brochure highlighting how Wisconsin license and permit fees are spent.
