    As wildfires continue to rage in Western Canada, communities in affected areas and surrounding provinces have been blanketed by thick plumes of smoke, prompting air quality alerts extending into parts of the United States this week.

    Smoke conditions in some parts of the U.S. Midwest have become so bad that the air quality has been categorized as “hazardous.”

    Exposure to wildfire smoke has been found to cause early death and respiratory issues, says a 2024 report from Health Canada.

    **FYI - the smoke map is updated regularly on the website.

    The Mercator projection makes things look worse than reality, but this is still very bad.

        I get the sense they’re trying not to dishearten everyone with doomsday predictions.

        Well thats the problem. They still think theyre living in a situation where we can stop it but its all being controlled and manipulated by capitalism. Climate Change scientists are not a multi trillion dollar industry. They have no real power or voices because they cant lobby the government.

            When you imagine the map proportionally squeezed from the sides at the top and squeezed down, the concentration of smoke becomes much worse.

              Unfortunately, I feel this may become the new normal.

              It will be decades, maybe centuries, before these areas burn again. Still, Canada is very big and mostly trees.

                  firesmoke.ca is a nice view as well. A nice view of hell is still a nice view right?

                    BC is looking good (until it all burns down in the summer)

                      Its even worst. Oil companies had scientists creating climate models since the 70s and suppressed them from the public.

                        Weird. Ms Smith hasn’t pivoted from denigrating the R.o.C to proclaiming the greater need for her aid over every other effort, yet. This is a little slow for her.

                          To add on to this for over 100 years we have known about the potential effects of this industry.
