Canada reports worst wildfire season on record — and there's more to come this fall

Does pavement burn? I am sure you have seen where semis carrying fuel burn on the highway and pavement under semi survived without even a ripple.

Hope they dont turn those directed energy weapons loose on my ripe durum

So just think about it.Your afraid someone zaps your durum field from above to start it on fire .

Nah, more worried about crazed climate loons with a match running into my dry canola.

Multiple fires started mysteriously on clear days on both sides of popular tourist spots, hmmm not suspicious at all Chuck. 🤔

Our generation is the first generation to feel the effects of climate change.we are also the last generation that can possibly do something about it.

SO...what can we do to INSTANTLY fix this?????? Tell us PLEASE!

2030 we all dead at this rate.

The really depressing thing about this ridiculous post, is that two other posters apparently agreed with it enough to like it.
Three people completely ignorant of history.
Just within recorded history, we have examples of extreme natural climate change which humans have managed to survive and thrive through. During the transition from the medieval warm period to the little ice age, glaciers in the Alps were advancing so fast they covered farms within a generation.
The temperature and precipitation extremes within the little ice age make the modern era look like a cakewalk.
And that's just one era. Humanity has survived innumerable cases of catastrophic and beneficial climate change. And in all previous instances, we managed to do so without the benefit of cheap plentiful reliable fossil fuel energy.

And if your wrong? Seems to me an awful lot at stake .

Wrong about what?
Everything in my post is documented historical facts.
No suppositions or models or forecasts.

Well the carbon tax will fix that all. 508 million people in North America and 40 million paying carbon tax. Can you see the problem? I can.

[cropgrower]

Canadas emissions are just like a fart in the wind compared to china and other countries , and we can bankrupt ourselves here with tax and daft regulations and it will not change anything

[shtferbrains]

60% of the world is just hopeing to see the light come on ever time they hit the switch.

A lage portion haven't got there yet.

They are more than happy to do all the dirty work producing all the crap we need to virtuously reduce emissions. Coal will be the preferred fuel because it's local and cheap.

Well two of them are the same fellow

Significant human caused climate change is a given at 420 ppm of CO2. 90% of the past warming has gone into the oceans.

Adaptation and mitigation are both on the table.

The question is will we reduce our emissions in time to stop runaway irreversible catastrophic climate change? Because if we don't the cost and disruption will be extreme.

Extreme forest fire losses were evident in Ft McMuuray 2016, Lytton 2021 and now across the country in 2023.

The sooner we transition away and reduce fossil fuel emissions the better.

In the case of Alberta and Saskatchewan the difference in a net zero electricity grid is 2035 vs 2050. 15 years. But both provinces are committed to reducing emissions.

Yawn, you might as well write for the UN or something. Your propaganda is tiresome. So is your lack of intellect and critical thinking.

Nobody is transitioning to anything but what we have been using for 150 yrs. In fact its going to accelerate by 15-20m bbl per day.

And if CO2 was responsible for fires, the earth would have be burning for 100m years before humans got here when levels were 5 times what they are.

You are lost.

Trumps still President and Covid will be gone after the election?

Your record of predictions speak for themselves! LOL
