July 15, 2023. Good Morning! Well, the air quality in Alberta is still crap, even if you're not worried about Covid (you should be) you should be wearing a good mask. Wandering out and about in this is like being a pack a day smoker. Stay safe out there โฎ๏ธโค๏ธ๐

Smoke on Monday. Surreal skies and toxic air. #albertafires #alberta second picture was taken this morning. Beautiful mist, cold, clean air after a solid rain.
It might LOOK better out, and it is, but it's still high enough an N95 mask, or any mask if you don't have an N95, is a good idea. Anything over about 25 micrograms per meter cubed of PM2.5 hurts your health, cognitive ability, and can cause both short term and long term effects. #YEG #AlbertaFires
Pretty (smoky)
Itโs hard to tell from the foreground, but the valley is blanketed in smoke. Even worse today:(
Alberta has endured some of the worst air quality in the world this week, as wildfire swirls

Smoke from the Alberta fires is creating some wicked Chicago sunsets, including the Pac-Sun. ๐ป

#alberta #albertafires unpleasant here these days. Terrible for the people who lost their homes and livelihoods. So many animals died and dying. Here at our home the humans, dogs and cats can stay indoors. My horses and all the other animals get to breathe in toxicity 24 hours a day.

Just how bad is the air in Calgary right now?
This chart shows the past five days.
Huge spike in particulate matter on Tuesday and, after a brief reprieve overnight, it's surging again today. ๐ท

This is what it looks like outside for me right now in Calgary as result of the wildfires in northern Alberta, and yes it does smell like a firepit.

So, many parts of Alberta are on fire and have been most of the last week. It is getting really bad today. So of course, the conspiracy theories are flying as hot and thick as the smoke. "the environmentalists are doing it", "the government is infiltrated by... WEF", "it's chemtrails", "it's climate fire bugs", "it's Trudeau's fault" (of course) and "they are trying to burn everyone out so they have to move to "smart cities". JFC.
But not one person talking about fossil fuel driven climate change and it's contribution to extreme drought and heat. No one is suggesting maybe we should give every support we can to those that are developing non-fossil fuel energy systems. No one is saying we should all use less energy, buy less crap, live more simply. My heart is broken by the photos coming out of Alberta today. Innocents suffer for the greed and bullshit of the few.
