Canadian Wildfires Burn Across The Entire Country

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, reports that Canadian wildfires have now burned more land than ever before. Unlike past years when fires were concentrated in Western provinces, the worst blazes are now hitting the prairies and Atlantic regions due to extreme drought. McIntyre highlights how this shift underscores the growing risks of climate change–driven wildfires, even in areas not traditionally affected, citing New Jersey’s unexpected blazes last year as another example.
