#NewYorkCity was recently clouded with smoke, making its iconic skyline almost unrecognisable. It was caused by #wildfires more than 4,000 km away.

But fire isn’t the only cause of air pollution. In fact, many cities across the world are reporting rising levels of #airpollution due to various reasons, and as a result, the deteriorating health of its residents.

N95 masks help protect people from wildfire smoke & poor air quality, as well as Covid & other airborne viruses. N95 masks should be free for everyone, & at the very least, there should be mask mandates in healthcare settings. Are there any politicians who understand this?
/2 Budget 2022 pledged sums to prevent & tackle forest fires, emergency prevention preparedness - $315,000,000 for the country - buy specialized fire fighting equipment, train new fire fighters and incorporate Indigenous Traditional Knowledge in our Fire Management Systems.
/3 Thus far, the Federal Government has contributed to 6 Provinces and Territories to acquire fire fighting equipment, vehicles, mobile units, avionics, hoses, pumps and enhanced communications equipment.

I know, it’s just pure coincidence the province with 1.7 trillion barrels of #oil, with a premier who said they would get rid of the #carbontax, who said no to the fed #gun grab and who said no to the Fed interfering with resource devt

Quebec’s #forests goes from northern hardwood with sugar #maple, beech, hemlock in the south, to pure boreal black #spruce forests up north. Natural #disturbances, go from single-tree windthrow or mortality in the south, to large stand-replacing #fires in the north.

Thanks to Prof. @GuillermoRein @ImperialHazelab and everyone for organizing and participating in the seminar. I truly learned a lot. Some really brilliant and insightful researchers here in working on global building #fire and #wildfire challenges.
I even got to see aluminum composite burn, a material examined after the #GrenfellTowerFire.
I also learned about smoldering.

The large #wildfires in #Chile are spreading quickly across large areas of non-native plantations of radiata pine and eucalyptus, many of them planted by foreigners during a dictatorship. These maps show recent MODIS heat detections on top of mapping of plantations (purple). 1/x
Over 3 million acres of plantations were established in this region in the 80s and 90s. As seen in the American West, during severe weather, conifer tree farms burn like the sun. Even-aged forestry is turning out to be an ecological disaster, all over the globe. 2/x
The @FSC_IC has certified over 3M acres of Chilean plantations as being 'sustainably managed'. But as in the USA, they failed to imagine the potential scale of wildfire losses in managed forests. Wildfire is a structural problem in tree farms, not easily mitigated. 3/x
1/29. 📜NEW BRIEF: Today we launch “PASSED THE POINT OF NO RETURN: A Non-Economic #LossAndDamage (#NELD) Explainer” covering what #NELD is, why and how it happens, where it happens, who is most affected, and importantly, how we can respond.
🔗Get it here: lossanddamagecollaboration.org/publication/pa…

2/29. The brief begins with a foreword by @UNFCCC NELs Expert Group Member @IrfanUllahCDO, who highlights that Non-Economic #LossAndDamage has been largely overlooked in climate negotiations and that urgent action is needed to address #NELD happening now e.g. The #PakistanFloods.
3/29. Then @DLodry of @LossDamageYouth shares the powerful story of his lived experience of Non-Economic #LossAndDamage in #Cameroon called "The Tears Of A Village River And Its Population" which tells how climate-intensified #Drought can lead to a loss of #Culture and #Identity.
#bced Pro-D. The chair gave me time to explain what this thing was , humming in the middle of our circle of 27 mostly unmasked teachers. I said it was a #science project. We had #wildfires which gave us choking smoke....1/ #covid19bc #CorsiRosenthalBox
...It was built by the #science class. I shared that the #CorsiRosenthalBox can breath in >1000x more air than our lungs so any wildfire smoke, pollution or airborne diseases like flu, or covid is more likely to be caught here before we breathe it in! #bced After I presented 2/
after I presented, a teacher took a pic of it & asked me how to make it. I promised her a link to how to make a #CorsiRosenthalBox so she could make one with her child. Next, the humanities teacher borrowed the #science dept CO2 monitor , &the math teacher borrowed my monitor 3/
#China has issued an orange alert on Wednesday for #drought as a scorching #heatwave sweeps across much of the country.
Parts of Jiangsu, Anhui, Henan, Hubei, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Chongqing, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Gansu and Tibet suffered from moderate to severe droughts, according to the National Meteorological Center.
In the next three days, precipitation in parts of the Yellow River, Huaihe, Jiangsu, Anhui and Sichuan basins will ease the drought, high temperature and dry weather will continue in other regions.

1. Extreme Heat🌡: Heat waves are deadly⚰. One study attributed more than 1/3 of heat-related deaths to climate change. Future warming could result in an additional 2K - 10K deaths/year in each of 209 U.S. cities. 2/11
Heart attacks & strokes can result from prolonged exposure to heat. The heart has to work harder to pump blood and minerals are lost through sweat. Extreme heat can also worsen pre-existing conditions such as kidney damage, especially for vulnerable populations such as 👴👵. 3/11

Disasters continue to sweep the world. Anthropogenic in nature, exacerbated by #climateCrisis #capitalism and #EcosystemDestruction. The age of disasters is upon us.
Wow....where is the high elevation smoke moving into the Western United States from? The smoke is the hazy slow moving mass moving in from the W/NW This will be a thread explaining what is happening. #azwx #smoke #wildfires2022Russia

- #Dengue risk will increase with longer seasons and a wider geographic distribution in #Asia, #Europe, Central and South America and sub-Saharan #Africa, potentially putting additional billions of people at risk by the end of the century
- A billion people projected to be at risk from coastal-specific climate hazards in the mid-term under all scenarios, including in Small Islands. #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency
I was live on @BBCNews last night talking about the language of #climate change. Here's a thread of short clips. First, I was asked to address what we call it: #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency #GlobalWarming Great to talk with @bbcdavideades!
Then we discussed a great term: #GlobalWeirding. Because human-caused #climate disruption is so much more than warming. It's the increased frequency & intensity of #extremeweather #heavyrain #Heatwaves #Wildfires #drought #flooding and more.
I explained why #greenhouse gases or #GHGs are not a great term for the public and why I prefer heat-trapping #pollution - it explains the mechanism.
