Air quality warning in Edmonton, much of Alberta due to N.W.T. wildfire smoke
-
For a perfect example of what @brenttoderian.bsky.social had to say about the #CommonSense of #ClimateSmart #CityBuilding on our recent show look no further than Calgary today where we again breathe the worst smoke on the #AQHI. #YYC now breathes ahistorical #smoke hours in the 100s per year

Today Calgarians will again breathe the most toxic level of air quality the #AQHI provides for, "10+". Historically it only went to 10 but in the last few years a new level was needed for when we go LITERALLY OFF THE CHARTS which we now do pretty much every year #SueBigOil #yyc #Wildfires #smokeyyc

For the fifth day in a row, we're starting the day with the official air quality measurement (AQHI) for my area of Toronto saying "5 or Moderate Risk"
According to Environment and Climate Change Canada, moderate risk means:
"No need to modify your usual outdoor activities unless you experience symptoms such as coughing and throat irritation."
But according to my personal air quality device, particulate matter levels are dangerously high.
"Air is Polluted. Air quality is poor, and you may experience symptoms such as coughing and throat irritation. The pollution may cause breathing discomfort on prolonged exposure, and discomfort to people with heart disease or asthma. Try not to stay in the environment for a long period of time."
"Try not to stay in the environment for a long period of time.." Vs. "No need to modify your usual outdoor activities..."
I guess what they *really* mean is: "no need to disrupt your contribution to capitalism" while we slowly choke the life out of you.

Understanding Canadian Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) & Wildfire Smoke
Wildfire smoke consists of toxic gases and particulate matter (PM) when breathed in gets into our lungs, bloodstream, and even our brain. 🧵1/

The Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) is a very useful tool that can help you assess the state of #AirQuality where you live!
