Seems like thick smoke has become a summer normal.

Smoke comes and goes day to day here. It's been 95 degrees with no rain for about a month.

The town of Jasper, Alberta is currently burning.

Remember how the cl0wns in this forum pounced on us Gore voters when we suggested Hurricane Katrina was a preview of coming attractions? You called us all doom and gloom... you had this pointless war in Iraq to justify.

I voted for Gore because he was right.

#3 I see the dumbasses on social media every single day when a story is posted that xxx day was the hottest day on the planet since records were started saying garbage like this:

It was 75 degrees...we're dying.

It's summer.

blah blah blah

The dumbing down of the public by the GOP has worked perfectly.

NYS has had 22 tornadoes in 2024 with 20 in past month. The previous record was 10 in 2018.

It's only going to get worse.

Past three summers we have had air alert warnings due to wildfire smoke. The fires are well over a thousand miles away. Suppose it will be coming soon.

Its what happens when you have 100 Million acres of dead wood still standing. If harvested within five years, the tree can be used for wood products, but Canada chose not too.

Not sure how the link in the thread has anything to do with the fires in the West.

It does? He did? Gore predicted the Beetle destruction to 100Million acres of forest, and Canada stood by and did nothing what a shame.
