Earlier this year, smoke from Canada wildfires lowered air quality in the eastern U.S. to its worst levels in recorded history. As the climate heats up and creates drier conditions, smoky skies will grow increasingly common.
With increasing wildfire activity due to changes in climate, smoke will likely become more prevalent and continue to have an effect on society. Health concerns and prescribed burning actions needed to restore functioning ecosystems will be affected by already smoky conditions across the country.
The U. S Forest Service and the North Atlantic Fire Science Exchange will hold a 90 minute The Future is Smoky webinar on December 14th from 11 am to 12:30 pm EST.
In this webinar, panelists include research meteorologists, air quality experts, and fire practitioners, will explore how we can address and adapt to a smoky future.
