Canadian #wildfires have added more than a million hectares to land burned over the past week. Now 4th most area burned in any year in the modern record there.

Today a smoke plume is delivering #CodePurple air to #Minneapolis, with some of the worst air quality on record there.

If you join the Mountain Valley Pipeline protest at the White House this afternoon, make sure to wear a tight-fitting N95 mask—the immediately hazardous DC air is at Code Purple, thanks to the smoke flowing down from Quebec’s fossil-fueled wildfires.

Glad to see these politicians are going to eat crow. Not only that, fossil fuel apologists such as Youngkin are going to choke on this air just as we have in PNW, even before the Covid-19 pandemic. #LeaveItInTheGround #wildfires #CodePurple https://twitter.com/kayekory/status/1666810772993998850?s=12&t=iRlnlIxU6Qj9aCJ-UuxP9A
