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”

Many thanks to @qdm (#UniversityOfAlberta) for presenting on occupational cancers for our #OccEnvMed residency Grand Rounds this morning!
Did you know that #OccupationalCancer makes up about 25% of work-related deaths worldwide? 👀

We published the book in 2021 as a way to reconnect and printed a limited run of hard copies, selling over 1,000.
The remaining hardcovers are on sale (25% off) until tomorrow and would make terrific gifts for yourself or a midlifer in your life. The ebook is also on sale for $9.99.

I am a #Canadian #undergraduate #student at the #UniversityofAlberta, studying #paleontology, #wildlifebiology and #zoology. My areas of interest include #vertebratepaleontology, #vertebrateevolution, and #devonian #fish!
