@steter It’s been waaaaaay too hot in Colorado. The front range barely had any snow last winter & now it’s stupid hot. I got tan lines walking 8 feet from my front door to my car.
At this altitude that I grew up in…. t’it feels like there’s no ozone. We’ve had #ozonewarnings before but nothing has ever felt like this.

Canada #WildfireSmoke to be a periodic problem into August across #Midwest, #Northeast
Prevailing winds will direct more wildfire smoke from western #Ontario into the Midwest and Northeast often well into August. Needed rain to put out the fires may be scarce.
By Alex Sosnowski, Jul 20, 2026
Excerpt: " Hundreds of large wildfires are burning across Canada and the United States.
"There are 809 active #wildfires in #Canada, according to the Canadian Wildland Fire Information System. To date this year, there have been 3,575 fires that have burned 2.7 million hectares.
"Even more fires have burned across the #US. 'So far this year, 40,771 fires have burned more than 3.9 million acres across the United States,' according to the (U.S.) National Interagency Fire Center newsroom. 'Fires in the Northwest and the fires in northern Minnesota pose the greatest demand for firefighting resources. Resource assignments are being prioritized based on life and property risk, operational impact, and probability of success.' "

Firefighters battle blaze on #ArthursSeat in the heart of #Edinburgh
Firefighters in Scotland have been working to extinguish a #wildfire at Arthur’s Seat, a famous hill near the center of the capital city, Edinburgh.
By Jack Guy, CNN
Published Jul 20, 2026(CNN) — "Firefighters in Scotland have been working to extinguish a wildfire at Arthur’s Seat, a famous hill near the center of the capital city, Edinburgh.
"The blaze was reported on Sunday evening, according to a statement from the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (#SFRS), published late on Monday morning.
" 'Operations Control mobilised six fire appliances and specialist resources to the scene where firefighters are working to extinguish a fire affecting an area of grass,' SFRS Area Commander David Dourley said in the statement.
" 'Our crews remain on scene this morning having worked tirelessly throughout the night fighting the fire. Operations will continue today until the fire is fully extinguished,' he said.
" 'There are no reported casualties,' added Dourley.
"Arthur’s Seat is a landmark dormant volcano that rises 251 meters (823 feet) above sea level, according to the Scottish tourism board, offering hikers views of the country’s capital city.
"It is also the site of a large fort dating back around 2,000 years, as well as St. Anthony’s Chapel, a picturesque 15th-century ruin, according to the tourism board.
"It sits in Holyrood Park, close to the Scottish Parliament and the Palace of Holyroodhouse, King Charles’ official residence in Edinburgh.
"Firefighters have responded to multiple blazes at Arthur’s Seat in recent years, tackling fires there in 2019, 2020, 2022 and 2025.
"Dozens of firefighters have also been battling a fire in the Cairngorms National Park in the #ScottishHighlands over the past five days, according to a separate statement from the SFRS.
"A 'very high risk' wildfire warning is in place for the Central Highlands, Southern and Eastern Scotland until Monday, the service added."

Everything that's currently in the Wildfire Smoke Resources doc has now been copied onto the website! https://wildfiresmokeresources.neocities.org/
If you have information or resources you would like to share--anything like info about a local mask bloc in North America, a clean air program your city government runs, a safe location with a good HVAC system where people can get out of smoky air, or even things like tree-planting programs and more long-term ways to locally combat climate change and improve air quality, please feel free to share it with me either here on Mastodon or via this Cryptpad form: https://cryptpad.fr/form/#/3/form/view/03ab8efd32850a3d5d5c376d39ed0284/ I'll add the information to both the doc and the site as soon as I can.

More smoke from Canadian wildfires set to blanket the US. Here’s how it compares to last week.
More than 900 wildfires are burning across Ontario and other provinces ahead of peak fire season next month. #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming

I may have missed it, but I don't think Andy Burnham has yet, as his coronation and arrival in No.10 have progressed, mentioned climate change yet....
Given the heatwave crisis & the need to both respond through ameliorative measures & seek to urgently find ways to halt human's contribution to the changing environment, we might have expected him to say *something* to indicate a Green Transition could be an excellent organising principle for his political economy?

I decided not to report this yesterday (Sunday) because it seemed like an empty threat.
#Trump was hosting #Carney for the World Cup final when he went on one of his forest fire tirades.
Trump told reporters that he spoke to Carney about the need to stop #wildfires in #Canada. He said that they should “pay us some damages or something, or we should do some tariffs.”
Ludicrous right?
Except now…
#US imposes new 50% #tariffs on some Canadian products
