#ClimateDiary

Photo from my mom in suburban Chicago. While it's lovely that summer has finally arrived there, this is not the air quality you want to see. In her text that included this image she said "it's hazy. Smells like burning." I had to tell her it was smoke from Canada wildfires.

My dad has difficulty breathing, and after sitting indoors all winter, he loves to spend time outside at various forest preserves in their area, but I can't imagine the air quality is good for his lungs 😔.
