Here’s a sobering report on the Canadian wildfires - listen to learn about the heroic smoke jumpers fighting to protect lives and human infrastructure, the consequences (30 million acres so far, health risks for millions located hundreds of miles away, carbon emissions two to three times that of Canada’s total annual emissions), fire “weather,” zombie fires, and more. No mention of the impact on indigenous peoples and the wildlife in the area, but we can imagine. #nature #climateactionnow

“Half of the people on the planet already live in places with #waterstress. The severity of that recent statistic is more like 25% are living in severe water-stressed areas. That part is really driven by how we use water and how well do we manage water, and how well do we work together to manage it better? So that's the hopeful part of this, is this is really mostly about how humans manage water. And we can change that.” – –  Andrea Erickson Quiroz, Global Director for Water Security at The Nature Conservancy talks with Sarah Johnson, Executive Director at Pathway To Tomorrow, about how the organization is addressing what many experts describe as a looming #globalwatercrisis.
