It costs money to solve this. Lots of money. Even more now that the annual damage costs are increasing as well. The good news is that eventually there won't be enough forest left to cause this much smoke...
My thoughts exactly. I went out for a service at the mall today, and the mall Zombies are out in full force, the smoke is so eerie, but it seems so many are just oblivious as to WHY this all is happening. I just hope our communities start paying attention & we can do better for our collective safety & future!🌎💜💚❤
He provided help initially, Danielle Smith & The UCP are failing at their jobs. Danielle made it clear that she doesn't want or need federal help. So she can own all the of the damage. Same with the Conservative brand.
To do list for now: put out the fires, and wear respiratory protections. Going forward, we definitely have to crank up emission reduction efforts, so there won't be more and more of these. The irony of reality hitting Alberta did not escape me.
Actually the solution is pretty simple. Bring back the funding that used to be available for combating wild fires. Both NDP and UPC cut funding from 2019 which has led to a inefficient ability for the province to combat the wild fires. This problem was never that bad back in the day. You pay taxes. Why do you need to tolerate this type of air? Are these politicans doing their job or pocketing your tax money? Look up the history of alberta cuts to firefighting.
@@stevebyra7795 emissions reductions prevent addition of too much greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere, addition of too much greenhouse gasses increases the likelihood of hotter and drier weather, which in turn makes fires easier to start and to spread.
@tonfie Youve attempted to explain how ghg's lower the kindling temperature of fuels. Thats not how fires start. What is the ignition source that ghg's provide?
@@KumariKumari-fw7nc Yes, certain areas in Alberta are worse than others. Northern Alberta air quality is toxic, Southern Alberta the risk was moderate yesterday, but now it's toxic again. All the homes, vehicles and other human made materials burning up in fire creates really poor air quality, plus the smoke from all the trees & organic matter burning up.
It's a highly relevant report. We currently have air quality rated worst on the entire planet.... you heard that if you were listening. And information on how to protect your cardio-vascular health is as pertinent as it gets right now. Maybe you're not interested, but sensible people are.
We as a country must start a national engagement project to create water recapturing sites in dry areas. In Africa and Asia, they have massive swale building volunteer projects in targeted areas to counteract drought. We need to let beavers create more swamps and dams in our driest areas. They are faster than any of us
oh come on. Resp therapists and pulmonologists haven't a clue as to WHAT TO DO...now with fires/smoke or any other time. Say and do the same things over and over.. but "NO" relief or genuine help unless a crisis and ER is only option available. Ask anyone - tens of millions 0- who suffer various forms of respiratory distress. ASK THEM....those who suffer all of this... notta "in the box" DR or something or another.
What are these firefighters doing? The air is suffocating. Am I paying tax for these guys to sit there drinking coffee and watching the fire to stop itself？Or praying for the rain
For 9 MONTHS IMPERIAL OIL & THE ALBERTA ENERGY REGULATOR POISONED ALBERTANS BY DUMPING THEIR CHEMICAL WASTE INTO THE LOCAL WATER TABLE. This is what DANIELLE SMITH & THE UCP DOES, AND THEN THEY LIE TO U LIKE THIS COMMENTATOR ABOVE IS DOING.

Emissions per person in China and India are a fraction of what we produce in North America. We use fuel extravagantly. They don't. And close to a third of their emissions are from manufacturing stuff for North America.
Funny those of us in northern Canada grew up and still live in communities where due to high energy costs everyone heat with wood, and have bonfires every weekend during the summer. I guess those living in the cities aren’t just tough enough
Did those bonfires have animal carcasses homes older homes to that probably have asbestos in them or I don’t know a bunch of trash but the point is there’s a whole bunch more burning than just the forest dude😂 but yes you sound very intelligent😂😂😂
Yes! I agree with you, I grew up on a farm where we would have huge bonfires of whatever garbage had accumulated every few months, sometimes animals too, and it's all good. The farmers down the road from me still burn the plastic wraps from the hay bales every few days. It's the norm here still to hear with wood. The last few years have definitely shown the difference in stoutness between the rural dwellers and the city dwellers. Fires have been burning for thousands of years, they will still be burning every year that we pay these ridiculous taxes. Nothing is going to change.
@@The_hippy.siren_named_saphira obviously you never grew up in the boreal forest. Hate to break it to you but forest fires happen every year, it’s how the forest rejuvenates. Been breathing the smoke every summer for 56 yrs 10 of which were spent fighting fires.
Women are people. Women are human beings. Do you disagree? Or are you one of those people who are so afraid of "woke" that you'll eventually be running around screaming "brain cooties, brain cooties, run away!" when you hear people using "please" and "thank you" and speaking in full sentences about sensible things?
This is a fact not an opinion.
Just add another carbon tax and it will go away😊
