1/ Seattle, on my morning walk with the dog

Same view of Lake Washington
October 2019 vs September 2020

That's smoke from fires burning hundreds of miles away.
Notice, you can't see the lake or the city in the distance.

We're the lucky ones. We don't have to evacuate or start over.

Climate change isn't happening.
Climate change is here.

Wherever you are, it will be there soon.
You should care about it, if not for the liberal west coast, for yourself, wherever you live.

Last time I talked about the wildfires burning in WA, CA, and OR, I had to hide and block dozens of "good! Let them burn!" comments from MAGAs.

I made this a "people you follow only can reply". Hopefully I don't follow any climate deniers.

Are you in Oregon right now? Have you spent time in Western Oregon prior to this week? Unless the answer to both those questions is “yes,” you can’t know what we’re going through. #OregonWildfires2020

But it’s not your fault. National news outlets, even the reliable ones like @washingtonpost and @nytimes just aren’t capturing the uniquely dire situation in Oregon. Although @cflav and @henryfountain started to scratch the surface nyti.ms/2Zycepj #OregonWildfires2020
We are not just an extension of California and Washington. We are not just experiencing the next incremental progression of #ClimateChange. This is a weather/ecological event the likes of which the world has not seen in modern history. #OregonWildfires2020 ImageImage

Hello from Seattle.

It's not raining. This is smoke from California, Oregon, and to a lesser extent, other place in Washington state.

Miss me with your "climate change isn't real" bullshit.

People all over the world have been living with the effects of climate change for years.

Every summer for the last 10+ years, Seattle has had to spend days and days indoors due to poor air quality.

This year is something different.

All you fucking idiots in my mentions talking about Antifa setting fires can fuck all the way off.
