    I was one of the Canadians evacuated in mid may up in Northern Alberta. Most fires were started due to lightning storms hitting farmland, which was/is dry due to low precipitation over the winter. There are areas that were evacuated that have never been evacuated, ever.

      I'd like to add that those fires are still burning UNDER the topsoil, because Alberta is built on muskeg and there is a lot of dead matter that just keeps burning. A lot of people still can't even return home.

    Recently where i live has been changing a LOT. Growing up here it was a very particular cycle.
    Forest fires in summer, storms in spring and cold in winter.
    But now it's changed, in the past 3 years we've had incredibly warm winters and completely dry springs
    Its literally the heart of summer here and we're still getting intense thunderstorms and chilling nights.
    This is not normal, this has never happened before in my life and now it's been happening for the past 3 years.
    The land is struggling because its not used to it, animals are confused and are dying out from the large droughts and sudden extreme rain.
    I remember when a storm in the summer was the type of event the whole family went outside for, it was so rare and interesting.
    Now we only get rain in summer, people who claim the climate isn't changing need to get outside more
    If I can notice a complete shift in such a short amount of time, then I can't imagine what devastation it's causing long term

      Reality deniers are always easily distracted. It's a lot like meme culture, really. So long as you can say something that makes the other guy look dumb, you win. It's like those raging lunatics who got fooled into thinking "organic" foods are healthier. There's this one clip of a Monsanto rep getting ambushed by some nutjob right after saying Roundup is non-toxic, and the lunatic says "Would you drink a glass of Roundup, then?" and the rep says of course he wouldn't. Play-Doh is non-toxic too, that doesn't mean I'd eat the stuff with a spoon as a snack. But because it makes the rep look stupid, the lunatics and their fellow twits are really happy with it, no thoughts required. The idiot in the video here is doing the same thing. Canada was basically dying from a heat wave a couple weeks ago and a massive fire got started, but because some twit can point to another twit's twits on Twitter about _some guy getting arrested for arson after a fire started_ with no context or details just "Would you drink a glass of Roundup then?", the twits are amused and think they scored a point.
      It takes at least a few seconds of thinking to understand climate change. It takes basic knowledge of chemistry and physics and even a little bit of looking up details on Google. Most people will _never_ do that. The rest of us hardly ever do it. We're all guilty of being lazy thinkers, it's just that some people glorify being that way.

      The conspiracy theory I kept running into on Twitter was that a handful of arsonists were running around setting all these fires, probably because they somehow benefit economically from their climate activism, or are cultural Marxists who just want climate change "to be real" so they can "Stick it to the Cons" or something.
      The "why" didn't seem as important as the facts that there were in fact some serial arsonists arrested in Alberta and Nova Scotia, and a bunch of the fires in Quebec all started around the same time, so ipso facto, climate terrorist arsonists set all the fires for their WEF woke antifa agenda.

I think it took almost 1.5 years to finally be declared out, burned almost 590,000 hectares, destroyed thousands of buildings, and forced 88,000 people out of their homes. It jumped the river and ignited at 1km away from the front. Costliest disaster in Canadian history. If I remember rightly from a few days ago on June 6th, the total land area burned so far was a 14,400% jump from the year before.

    Carbon Tax is a system designed to reduce consumption of fossil fuels and the associated carbon emissions. It is a punitive tax system similar to "sin taxes".
    It is a polarizing issue in Canada.
    I currently support the Carbon Tax and the Conservative Party of Canada wants to eliminate it.
    But I haven't seen the Cons plan to reduce carbon emissions. They need to convince me that they have an actual plan.
    Besides, the way political parties in Canada work, they would "eliminate the Carbon Tax" and then create a new tax to replace it.

    Even if you try to argue about the initial cause of the fire, climate change is having an impact on the extent to which that fire spreads and grows. If the environment was cooler and the woods had more moisture, the fire would not grow to the proportions they have gotten to. An arsonist trying to set a lake on fire wouldn't get far, but because the woods are tinderboxes, any ignition source (natural or intentional) is going to have far more consequences. Unless you are also going to say that these activists are also intentionally going around drying out the woods somehow, the argument still misses the point of the impact of climate change.

    Here in Germany people can be "happy" about the wild fires in the eastern part of the country. There are plenty of forests full of ammunition left by the Soviets (some areas are still infested by ammunition dropped in WWII), which finally explodes during the wild fires. It's making people forget that authorities had more than 30 (!) years to clean those areas.
    There are thousands of tons of WWII grenades, bombs, etc. in the Baltic Sea close to the coast of Germany. This stuff rusts and the chemicals spread in the water. But, hey, Germans love to swim in the Baltic Sea! We can't take this joy from them, right?

    LoL the way he said it, is like showing & sharing wildfires or showcasing activists will make people want to add to Wildfires. Yet if a person starts a forest fire it is not truly a Wildfire. If we find that a person started the fire, it gets a different name & is a very different topic. Yet that seems to be what he is implying. How else could people trading information lead to fire? unless people start fires in response. Almost as if to suggest they need a min number of fires just so they can then talk about the fires after & showcase it

    It get's worse.
    Many wildfires are prevented by counterfires and controlled fires.
    Those however need very specific weather conditions, which are not presant all year round.
    With the wildfire "season" broadening those instances where controlled fires can be startet to rejuvinate the forestfloor become less and less, adding more and more fuel for the wildfires t oburn through during the season.
    Which makes controlleing the wildfires harder and harder.
