Fast-moving wildfire in the Canadian Rockies hits the town of Jasper
A fast-moving wildfire in the Canadian Rockies that had prompted 25,000 people to flee has roared into the near-deserted town of Jasper, causing devasting damage.
Jasper was beautiful. I hope they manage okay.. and some rain would be amazing. More of our towns are going to be under threat as this trend continues. Hopefully everyone got out with their pets safely.
Slave Lake 2011, Fort Mac 2016 and now Jasper... How many more communities will burn before our government starts taking real proactive action against climate change-driven disasters?

The corporations causing climate change don't pay for mitigation and recovery from the consequences of their actions. The politicians forming government are owned by the corporations. Communities burning isn't motivation for change.
