I can't tell you for sure that's true, but whatever it is, it's going to go up because we've had fires even in the western. We're the evergreen state. We have a little rain here, but we're having fires in the western side of Washington state now. I've had two whole towns burned down. Of course, Trump denied us emergency relief from that. But coming back from your central question,

I agree that you want to talk to people if they're fishermen or fisher, you talk about fish. If there's asthma in their family, you talk about asthma. You talk about those issues, not the global crisis, right? It's not the planet that's the problem. It's your life.

It's been so disappointing that we have not been able to find Republicans in office to be able to help us on this. And I keep hoping that's going to change, but it is not.
