Up here at Lat 53°N I've always relied on our long summer days to recharge from our long winter nights. ❤️
Now that every spring and summer is #FireSeason across the #prairies, along with repeated extreme #heat events, winter's passing leaves me deeply anxious.
Little things like adding tiny Xmas lights in rooms darkened to block the heat help lift spirits, but choking and gasping from what seems more #smoke than #air is a misery I wish on no one.

Indeed, I'm wondering whether #congestionpricing will ever go back to $15, as opposed to this measly $9, which seems wholely inadequate given that #ProspectPark and #Inwood Hill Park are being burnt to the ground #Climate #climatechange #climatecrisis #KathyHochul #fireseason
