Continued growth in total estimated carbon emissions from devastating Canada #wildfires (+NWT/BC/AB) to 10 August showing 2024 (red solid line) set to soon become 2nd most extreme fire year of the past two decades (after 2023). Analysis with #CopernicusAtmosphere GFAS data.

Noting sharpest recent increase in NWT in the last couple of days but still with quite some way to go to catch 2014 and 2023.
