btw, the Canadian wildfire smoke is all the way in middle Appalachia
Huh. I think this is literally the first tumblr post I've seen about the fires. And the first non Canadian to mention the fire at all
I guess I’m on the New York side of the internet but I feel like every single person in NYC has made a post complaining about the air quality. The smoke from the Ontario fires in particular is traveling east and as far south as North Carolina. Really sobering thing to think about and my thoughts are with the people on the ground in Ontario trying to contain it and advocating for more stringent fire control measures.
#I'm typically in mtl but in CO for the summer and it got bad here even for a while#my heart is absolutely with the people who have lost their homes families and livlihoods to the fire#and it really irks me to see new yorkers complaining about the air quality since it's usually incredibly tone deaf#like yeah it sucks you coffee walk gives you headaches now and it's harder to be outside but people have died#have some empathy
