This is an excellent round up of a growing phenomenon of raging wild fires unleashed on the planet converting carbon sinks into carbon emitters that will never sequester carbon again.
It is important to note that we are at 1.5 C approximately above the 1870 baseline as we track to and beyond the IPCC worst case scenario of 6C. I believe there will be neither trees no humans on the planet after about 4C:
‘A raging Canadian wildfire grew explosively on Saturday as hot, dry winds pushed the blaze across the energy heartland of Alberta and smoke forced the shutdown of a major oil sands project.
‘The fire that has already prompted the evacuation of 88,000 people from the city of Fort McMurray was on its way to doubling in size on Saturday, the seventh day of what is expected to be the costliest natural disaster in Canada’s history.’ Article ‘Absolutely Vicious Canada Wildfire‘, continues here.

I'm an anti-imperialist, environmental activist and blue ocean sailor, who is passionate about the earth and all it's inhabitants without favour. Brace for imminent impact as we bare witness to the non-linear unraveling of the biosphere and habitability disappearing for most if not all complex life on the only habitable planet we know of. To quote President Niinistö in North Russia: ‘If We Lose the Arctic, We Lose the World’. Folks we have lost the Arctic.

Yes! Mother earth will rage her fury on us and make us pay for the pain we have caused her. And she must be in great pain. It has really hit home with me recently that the earth is a living entity that has created all life and gives us life. She has created every aspect of life from the ocean, the bacteria to the giraffes, the dinosaurs, us. We must love the earth first. I think the reason why the indigenous people were all killed through history was because they were free and were connected to the earth and had knowledge thathas been lost to us. This has been done on purpose and I believe a war has been waged against the earth and I do not why but the people at the very top who have continued on the plan know something we do not. We are not supposed to live like this.
