Alberta Burning

This year, there's already been almost 350 wildfires in Alberta. A week of hot weather in this area of Western Canada, has resulted in 13,000 people being ordered to evacuate their homes. More than 25,000 hectares of land have been burned (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/may/05/canada-wildfires-thousands-evacuate-fox-lake-fire). It's pretty early in the year, for Canada, to have fires on such a scale. They take forest fires seriously in that country. Climate change will mean a really hot, dry summer in the North American continent. Things will be very much worse in July to September.
