The air reeks of burning wood, in fact that’s exactly what it is. Forest fires still ravage the great northern forests and there is no end in site. There won’t be anytime soon as most provincial governments slashed funding for men and women who dedicate their lives to fighting those fires. We now depend on countries circling the globe to come to our aid. Bless their souls.
Tonight’s moon is orange when it should be bright white. Our air has been overcast for days, again, with an air quality alert. Walkers, runners and even the multitude of dog walkers in the park have become non-existent this week. Most have sought the safety of their homes becoming mushrooms. Songbirds have left seeking refuge in the country with its abundance of tree’s and lakes. It’s unreal to me having to mask up when I go outside to tend the garden. Water, weed and feed, and then I return to the safety of my home.
When will the powers to be realize our planet is burning. I don’t see it in the near future and feel for next generations when they are left to fight this destruction due to mans insensitivity, greed, and disrespect for the now. Heaven help them.
