More businesses from now on will prioritize climate in their risk assessment. I remember the USAF mentioned that as a priority when the last serious cyclone in Florida badly knocked around some of their very expensive latest fighter jets ground based there.

And while this was going on Exxon had its lobbiest ringing around to key US Senators to insure that Biden's Infrastructure Bill was stripped of any climate change initiatives, and they succeeded.

Seems Canada has been experiencing some of the same, fire-generated weather that we saw in the Australian bushfires during the 2019/2020 season.

Hello,

After that post I think they added 85 fires in 48 hours after that. There are now operators who's business rely on smoke proofing houses and business over on the Canada/USA coast.

That's insane to think that there have been enough fires for long enough over wide enough area for these companies to operate now. Imo a sign for us later on.
