Looks like the summer air will be tainted by haze off and on, from the fires that are burning across Canada. We’re dealing with another round of bad air here in PA, unsure of when it will improve.
Where will all this smoke go? Is it here to stay, just getting caught in the jet stream or some other steering current, traveling around the planet forever? Can it dissipate? It looks like all of Canada is on fire!
Glad we had those good days in Maine last week. I look at the pictures and the sparkling air quality is one of the first things I notice. The air here is ugly now—not just haze but a tinted haze, indicative of being laden with who-knows-what sort of pollutants and carcinogens.
But there is no climate change, no global warming. We’re having no effect on any of this. This isn’t our fault. Stuff like this just happens every now and then. Right, ExxonMobil? Right, Mr. Tillerson?
One might think the burning Cuyahoga would have taught us something, commanded our attention. It did for a bit. But now we’re running out of warning signs, getting lazy again.
