Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe smoke clouds generated by the wildfires ongoing in Canada reaches the Atlantic Ocean.jpg |
English: The smoke clouds generated by the wildfires ongoing in Canada reaches the Atlantic Ocean. Canada continues to be ravaged by severe wildfires. As of 10 May 2023, more than 100 fires are ongoing across the Alberta Province, and have burned 390,000 hectares in less than a week (an area larger than Luxembourg). The fires have forced more than 29,000 people to flee, and 27 are classified as "out of control", according to Alberta Authorities. In addition, the smoke generated by the fires has been so massive that it has engulfed the skies of large areas of North America. On 9 May, one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites captured the smoke clouds which had reached the Atlantic Ocean. The Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) provides accurate and timely global air quality forecasts, helping decision-makers and citizens to better understand and address the impact of air pollution on human health and the environment. |
