Lol. Nobody is choking on smoke. The earth is fine. Humans may make life slightly more difficult for themselves in the next century or two due to global warming, but those difficulties will be more than offset by advances in technology, even under pessimistic assumptions.

No one except most Canadians, the West Coast, Midwest, and Northeast of the US. And Texas too apparently: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/environment/article/wildfire-smoke-deaths-houston-report-18208284.php https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/environm... Is there anywhere in the continental US not affected by wildfire smoke? Hawaii is probably doing alright.

Erm. We are choking on smoke. Its also the case that HappyMemes are very much as profitable (if not more) as home air filters. Liars may not know they are part of the zombie horde .... but they do their master's will anyway.

This link is the parents speaking, nonetheless another data point [0} I'm respiratorily at risk to particulate matter in the air (partially my own fault for cigarette smoking for many years, partially happenstance via a house fire/smoke inhalation), and the air quality has been a bastard in ON Canada this summer. It certainly has affected my outdoor activities.
