    5% of Canada’s forest burned last year, and Quebec City was running around shutting down pizza ovens because of “particulates”.

    Jesus, the level of bikeshedding that goes on is astounding.

      It’s not like adding more pollution to the air is gonna make things any better. This is an easy w in a world of intractable, difficult problems. We are barely into the bell curve of where the climate could go, and people are already bitching about the tiny hurricanes, tornadoes, winter storms, droughts, insurance increases, food costs, and wildfires. If you think it’s bad now, just wait and see what it’s like in 30-60 years if we don’t change our behavior, haha.
