“scientists at the #CanadianForestService and the #UniversityOfAlberta projected that the annual footprint of #charred land in #Canada will more than double by 2050 and increase four-fold before century’s end. Some of the steepest increases will be in already hard-hit #WesternCanada, but also in swathes of northern #Ontario and #Quebec.
And those #fires will be fundamentally different—more beastly and less controllable”
