Matthew 24:7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

Important Takeaways:

• Canada Wildfires Are Still Burning—Why and When Will it End?
• Canada is already on track to have its worst season for wildfires, with over 20 million acres of forest burned, as a mix of hot and dry conditions is having devastating consequences for wildlife and poses increasing health risks for people in the path of smoke clouds.
• The latest official maps as of Friday show the most intense wildfires in Canada are focused in Quebec and western Ontario, as well as in Alberta province, which borders Montana.
• As of June 29, figures from the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre (CIFFC) show that there were 497 active fires, or which 229—nearly half—were out of control. In the year to date, 8.1 million hectares (about 20 million acres) of land have been burned.
• Canada’s wildfire season typically runs from May to October, suggesting the situation could grow worse as 2023 progresses. Meanwhile, NASA said earlier this week that smoke clouds had already made it as far as western Europe.
• “The other thing is that the forests aren’t managed, and therefore all of that fuel—i.e. the dead wood, et cetera—isn’t cleared, just because [the forests are] massive,” he said. “And so what you have is a stockpile of fuel which can be ignited very easily.”
• Firefighting efforts alone are unlikely to quell the blazes.
• Bringing the current swath of wildfires to a halt depends not merely on there being rain, but consistent or heavy rain over an extended period.
