Clearly wildfire smoke entering Canada
And then Americans have the nerve to get pissy with Canada when their smoke gets over here. No offers to help, no well wishes. Just complaints. Typical.
That’s a lot of fires.
Thank you Washington for avenging Michigan.
I live in that circle, north of the border. :(
The people emitting the carbon dioxide should pay for it, since climate change is responsible for much of the fire.
(This statement is not in disagreement with the post. See list.)
Obviously an illegal Canadian wildfire that crossed the border. ICE will shoot it any minute now.
With what?
Fire, water or ice?Come on everyone knows you fight fire with fire
Did it work?
In an alternate reality, they are just hoards of ice monsters
As a WA state resident, believe me… We are paying for it. And we ain’t getting our money back.
Man GOES is bad ass
I see a LOT of smoke that was made in America in this image. USA USA USA
Where is the map from?
Space. Who knew the land actually had lines like that? Guess that’s why the states and provinces are shaped the way they are though.
I can confirm. I am from space.
Those Nazcas were a lot more wide ranging than I thought.
A few of them were bad at following the plans for their part of the drawing and got lost.
The shapes of states are arbitrary. That is an actual photo from space, but the white lines are added to the image after the fact.
That’s ridiculous, are you trying to tell me that they draw those lines on every photo instead of marking the ground once? Typical government waste! Also, this community is for serious posting and commenting only.
LIES!
It’s true. You can tell because the white lines are in front of the clouds.
That’s just because the clouds are lower to the ground.
You can fly over clouds, so the lines needed to be drawn higher than the clouds so pilots can find their way.
It’s also why the smoke isn’t covering the line, since the fire is on the ground and the smoke is rising it hasn’t made it as high as the line yet.
And this is taken from a low (as in southerly) angle, making Washington look flatter or squished. That or the aspect ratio was altered.
It’s definitely from the south, and low earth orbit is really low. It’s like putting your eye right up to a baseball, almost touching it.
See where the ISS orbits, to scale, here:
There aren’t really lines, they did that with wires
near earth orbit
The Internet
Duhh!
I read that in the tone of Andy Samburg’s character in Threw It on the Ground when he says, “My dad’s not a phone! Duh!”
Since global climate change is a liberal hoax, maybe liberal Americans should foot the bill…
Or some such bullshit according to Trump and conservative Americans
Blows my mind that Trump was raising a stink over the smoke when it was pouring into NYC and New England.
All things considered, I’d expect him to fan the flames much, much more literally.
Canada is #11 in CO2 emissions worldwide don’t act like you ain’t done nothing.
Ok and the US is #2, only behind China.
I think you’ll find every country has contributed to this problem.
The difference is was the the President of the US that blamed Canada for the smoke, refusing to recognize that Global Warming is the problem. The post you’re replying to is not from any Canadian official, it’s just a joke on a shitty web forum.
I expected this message, but I didn’t expect it to be downvoted. Is Lemmy getting better? Probably not; the parent probably just posted it at the wrong time and the dogs did their piling.
Lemmy will only get better when we delete the italians.
It is true that Canada has a high per capita level of emissions. People definitely don’t do as much as they should and the popularity of stupidly huge trucks is absolutly a problem. One thing to consider tho is that winters are though and that definitely accounts for something, as well as the fact that it’s a huge territory. I’m definitely not proud of how our new government just decided that climate change can’t be adresses right now, but a big part of these measures are a direct reaction to trump trying to starve us. Because the united states are currently trying to break our economy if you didn’t know avout that. Americans are bringing the world back 50 years ago on every environmental issues, they can definitely go fucked themselves.
Sounds good to me, let’s make America pay for 11/12th of the cleanup and Canada can cover the last 1/12 as per their emission ratios
Not even in the top ten? Thanks. Man. I thought they were higher. That’s a relief lmao.
The point isn’t he wasn’t causing a fuss about CO2 emissions. It was smoke.
You can’t be this dense. Sad troll is sad.
🙄 everyone who says something that threatens your narrow worldview is a troll. grow up.
The hypocrisy is real.
Yeah, everyone blaming the US and China when every first world nation have been contributing to the problem by sending all their business and industry to them is pretty hypocritical.
Nah, you’re just a fucking moron who can’t understand context and feels the need to draw attention to yourself.
smoke is caused by fires dumbass
That’s some mighty fine trolling
