Here in #Brooklyn we are facing daily #airquality alerts due to #Canadian #wildfires. Are there any #environmental #protests in #Canada whatsoever, or is the #media just under-reporting? Please restore my #faith in #humanity

Hm... Canada and the USA, including Alaska, have roughly the same size of territory.
Meanwhile, our population is 10% of the United States.'
We cannot control the wildfire. Fire has been suppressed for decades on behalf of the logging industry, but conditions exacerbated by climate change have overtaken our best efforts. Right now, entire towns are evacuating while firefighters do their best to keep humans safe.
Why doesn't the USA sens some firefighters to help, if you're suffering so badly? Canada sent crews to assist in LA and previously.
Or is it just that you expected to escape the consequences of climate change?
