← Findings

June 8, 2023: “As it so happens, wildfire smoke from the wildfires burning right now in Canada has been affecting the skies here Washington, DC this week.” Broader remarks on climate conditions and forest mismanagement are about U.S. forests generally, not a climate-cause sentence for this plume.

Codes

• Disaster Mention yes — Canadian wildfire smoke over Washington.
• Climate Connection no — General forest/climate-conditions line, not this smoke caused by climate change.
• Mentioned Republican Obstruction of Climate Action no
