Woke up to smoke creeping in from up-lake this morning and, by the looks of this WA DNR map, something’s going on. :(

WA’s Department of Natural Resources hit it out of the motherfucking park again. 😂 Geeky and groan-inducing nature- and geology-themed valentines:

Our state Dept of Natural Resources #waDNR #dnr just published a pretty dope #GIS #map. It's designed to showcase and encourage using state lands for generating #cleanenergy. There's some other data in there too - #socioeconomic risk + #environmental health disparities. If you wanna nerd out for a bit with some raw data in our state, go straight to the source and click around a bit 🙂https://wadnr.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=d0364fb0d1104f87b4e7e8549fb7f220
