Global Impact of Wildfire Smoke: From Canada to Europe and Beyond.
TL;DR Summary
Smoke from Canadian wildfires has reached Norway and is expected to hit southern Europe, according to the Norwegian climate and environmental research institute. The smoke is not expected to pose a health risk in Norway, but has caused hazardous levels of pollution in Canada and the eastern US. With increasing temperatures due to the climate crisis, forest fires are likely to be more common and of a larger magnitude, leading to more episodes of smoke and an impact on climate. Canada has asked for help fighting more than 400 blazes nationwide.
