  1. Nobody’s mentioned the lousy job Canada is doing managing its wood.

  2. Direct Energy Weapons liked they used in Paradise, CA

  3. Why the atmosphere is not observing smoke, Those are man made worries, Carbon increasing car pollution, industrial pollution. God made the world beautiful! God tests every individual giving blessings & opportunity to discover God Almighty. Thank God this place is not final abode. This place is place for Learning!

  4. From Long island NY smeels horrble stepping out of the door.

  5. This is because Canada cant manage their wildfires. Stop blaming everything on climate change. In fact, people should stop watching ABC if they want the truthful news!

  6. Every morning I see and hear a lot of birds, goose and their kids, and bears. Hope they’ll be okay because it’s very silent without them, from NJ

  7. What this actually says is, we breathe the same air as Canada! I'm sure this resonates with other states and countries that surround them.

  8. This explains a lot. I went outside this morning and was like, “what the hell? What is this stench in the air?”

  9. ​The balloons that flew across the country recently have released a chemical that just now activated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMZ0ZFNJnUo

  10. And a significant percentage of the population are climate change deniers because of the propaganda that they choose to believe.

  11. You sure is not from Ohio? You know the incident with chemicals

  12. I’m on Long Island smells like afuckin campfire

  13. the same thing happen here n california back n 2018 and 2019 its going to last a month n the air so most of u are going to get sick and delevlop heart problems and lung problems from it sadly

  14. the fire and smoke is going to do alot of damage to ur heart and lungs and ur mind because its like u smoking a pack of cigarettes a day it can cause mental problems as well like paranoia anxiety attacks and panic attacks

  15. Climate change believe in it. Wild storms droughts and big fires!!!

  16. At this point I don’t even know what the firefighters are doing

  17. How u turn this one thing into a daily thing.

  18. I forgot to close my window last night and woke up vomiting.

  19. Already smoked 3 cigarettes 😢

  20. I’d recommend getting air purifiers if you have respiratory issues. I believe Dyson, Blueair, and Coway are all good brands.

  21. God's judgment has begun, and the punishments will intensify. Repent, and surrender your souls to the King of Heaven. We are about to see war, famine, and natural disasters like never seen before. Repent and surrender. He will protect you.

  22. Back inside we gooo. Where have we heard this before?

  23. Cmon mask up east coast pussies, this your first time?

  24. C’mon Canada you are supposed to have funds for this stuff, but honestly it’s our fault too, our emissions and oil companies raise the temp and cause this. But where’s the satellite programs and funds to stop this, it can’t happen every year anymore.

  25. All this is because people can't chill….they wanted to disobey fire burns and camp like nerds so in turn sparked a catastrophe.Doing too much all you see these days is people who can't stay low-key and cause issues for others… something I cannot stand.

  26. “Who farted, eh?”

    🇨🇦🙄…

  27. Anyone here with asthma or any respiratory issues coughing or having a burning sensation in the lungs?

  28. This all planned!!!!!😤 This is NOT climate change!!! Woke media will never tell us the truth!!!

  29. Let me guess! They all will die from heart attacks and strokes in the safe and effective areas!😁

  30. Wild fire's are like humans out of control .

  31. So do we file law suits against CANADA? THIS ISNT RIGHT. WHY ISNT OUR GOVERNMENT SPEAKING UP FOR OUR HEALTH. WHY ISNT OUR GOVERNMENT HELPING CONTAIN THESE FIRES TO PROTECT OUR PEOPLE.? BECAUSE BIDEN IS TO WORRIED ABOUT HIS SHARES IN UKRAINE.

  32. im in hamlin ny the sky is orange and its smelled like camp fire for 2 days

  33. 429 fires 🔥🔥🔥🔥

  34. It'll be over 100M. Back to wearing masks 😷 😷 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

  35. What type of typically available mask helps w/this air?

  36. Someone explain to me how a fire from Canada is being felt in NYC sound like COVID all over again

  37. Welcome to California! Oh wait, it’s not California?!

  38. Yeah, man. It hit. When you can smell smoke in a city hundreds and hundreds of miles from a fire? You have a problem. A BIG problem. The Earth is dying because of our actions. We HAVE to steward our planet. And those air particles? When it rains? Goes right into the water and soil. This may even hurt crop growth (likely will) and everyone needs to truly do their best (not required by law) to heal this plant in little ways so that the cumulative effects of climate change can be reveresed by us (the fleas on the dog). If we dont stop biting the earth, it's gonna bite back and swallow us. The birthpangs of a planet finally taking a giant s*** are here.

    Who needs to go to Mars when we're going to MAKE Earth Mars!!!!!!
