Time to put a tariff on Canadian smoke

‘With more than a hundred wildfires burning in Canada, the smoke is bringing potentially dangerous air quality conditions to parts of the northern United States.

As of Monday, there are 181 active wildfires burning in Canada, with 92 of these considered to be "out of control," meaning fires that are being observed and assessed, but not immediately suppressed, according to the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre.

Surely in the modern world with satellite imagery and drones we can do a better job of halting these wild fires. The 2023 fires put huge amounts of carbon into the atmosphere.

‘In 2023, Canada's wildfires released approximately 640 million metric tons of carbon into the atmosphere, according to a study by NASA. This amount was equivalent to the annual emissions of a major industrialized nation, and was more than the total fossil fuel emissions of countries like Russia and Japanin 2022.

Amazing more CO2 than Japan or Russia. But I bet more effort is going into wind than fixing their fire problem, which isn’t sexy. TIC the Donald should produce a smoke tariff….you can smell this stuff and the golf ball is harder to follow.

Tariffs on McDonald's. Diaper Don loves his McDonald's.

Rumoured to be switching to KFC.

‘Smoke from Canadian wildfires continue to spread across the skies across much of the Upper Midwest and Great Lakes.

The smoke may dim the sun and create colorful sunrises and sunsets. Where the smoke is the thickest, it is reaching the surface at times, slightly reducing visibilities, and creating a campfire smell. The smoke will also create air quality issues at times, mainly for sensitive groups. See the links below for more information. Please see the links below for more information.’

…..amazing how these Woke governments in Oz, Canada and California who are so obsessed with climate change are polluting the atmosphere are creating CO2 even sometimes in excess of their own economies.

It shows how serious they take the problem by the way they neglect their forestry...one big scam, and the climate alarmists lap up everything...

Not interested in the results, that’s just too hard. Forestry who needs all that work. But virtue signaling is cool, think a better world and voila, the job is done.

I worked for the Forestry Department in SA and one thing that was stritly administered by the Department and also prescribed to private forests were he need to remove undergrowth that cause fires and while i is difficult for trees to catch fire - high heat from undergowth fires causes trees to catch fires, Keep the undergrowth unde control and forest fires can be reduced by 90% - the other 10% relates to fires started by arsonists,

A few ears ago there was a mountain fire adjacent to the Garcia plantation near Riversdale but the pl;anation itelf survived with no trees destroyed. So that measures are still applied in SA.

I the recent Los Angeles fire and similar fires in teh past in California the problem always was no ndergrowth cotrol and then there were no water in the fire hydrants, because there was a small fish which numbers got smaller in the river from where water is provided to Los Angeles and that was enough reason to cut of water supply to Los Angeles and reservoirs being empty with no wter supplied to fire hydrants, That really happened was the result of idealogical idiocy.

You can be sure the same things happened in Canada - but the excuse is always the same - the fires are caused by global warming. Which is total BS supreme. But then Canada is also governed by ultra-letissts with maladministration ruining the country.
