The area burned in the Canadian 2025 fire season has hit 5 million ha. Third active fire season in a row that combined has burned 7% of the Canadian forest. Currently we have 346 fires out of control (192 monitored out of control (OC) and 154 OC that are being actioned) so expect the number to rise.

This is a great chart. I know lots of people are questioning reality right now, but you're memory of living in Calgary as a child is correct. We did not have week long smoke events. It simply didn't happen.
Last year ended up with 200 smoke hours in Calgary.

Hey pals! I got a request from a lovely reader (hi Danene!) looking for some guidance and thought I’d crowdsource some answers from fellow fats.
Fellow fats: what are the most meaningful ways (big or small) that non-fat friends have shown up for you?
