Hey all for whoever doesn't know, my home province of British Columbia is on fire currently and tons of people are on evacuation notice, and I haven't really seen any media about it, so just here spreading awareness

Park Fire Evacuation

Back in 2018, the Camp Fire of Paradise CA burned my whole town down.

Here we are in 2024 and we're being evacuated again for the Park Fire, a fire set by a pedophile who got out of prison recently. Not joking about that.

So anyway, might lose my house.

Again.

To a fire threatening to burn my town down.

Again.

If anyone would like to donate to help my family, please donate to my GoFundMe to escape California, or donate to my Donate Button on my main page.

Please reblog this post as well, my family is packing up and leaving with just about $120 in our collective banks and we don't know how long we'll be evacuated.

Fire suppression p.1 & p.2: “Flame Retardant” & “Building Potential” Inspired by the PEM's ‘Our Time on Earth’ exhibit

I was gladly surprised to see the exhibit’s various optimistic installations, especially the building materials of the future. As a forestry student I am beginning to understand our relationship to our forests differently. In the US, forest policy which aimed to suppress wildfires has contributed to a century-long build up of fuel that would otherwise have been cleared by controlled burns or small spontaneous ground fires. Indigenous peoples shaped the forests of the Americas to require these controlled burns. More and more I realize that indigenous knowledge and collaboration is a necessary part of the stewardship of future. A concept which is present at large at the museum but also specifically within Our Time on Earth. Getting a ‘sustainable’ amount of lumber from our forest still disregards the health and purpose of these trees to a diverse and complex ecosystem. It is essential that we diversify our building material, to include carbon-negative things like mycelium! Natural resources that are close by, and at hand in our local environment, which doesn’t require chopping down a tree 3000 miles away and transporting it to the US. We need local resources whose collective cultivation lead to a sense of community and collaboration. A better future!

My thanks to lane.m.artin for collaborating with me for p.2!

Jasper, Alberta, Canada - devastated from forest fire.

As a National Park, Jasper is under the jurisdiction of the Federal Canadian Government & trudeau does not like Alberta.

It’s strange, how mesmerizing it is to watch our own destruction

-

The Park Fire started July 24th at around 3pm in Upper Bidwell Park of Chico, CA. It was started by a man pushing his buring vehicle down into a Ravine and instead of calling to report what had happened, he walked away.

When we went to sleep last night the fire had burned over 6,000 acres but when we woke up it had consumed 47,000 acres in one night. It is now at 124,949 acres and the largest fire of the year in California. Despite having a wet winter, we’ve had a scorching summer leaving much of Northern California a tinder box.

Forest fires were a normal occurrence before humans arrived in this area. Some species even relied on forest fires to spread their spores or reset habitats. But since Global Climate Change has been taking place, leaving us in year long droughts and at high fire risk, these fires are far more destructive than they ever were before.

My family and I are south of the fire and have not been issued an evacuation warning but we are right on the edge of evacuation zones.

My grandmother’s friend, someone who lost their house in the Campfire that ripped through Paradise, CA in 2018 (literally the next town over from the Park Fire) her new house just burned last night in this fire. How many more towns need to burn and lives destroyed before people realize that THIS ISN’T NORMAL?

The area just outside my city is on fire. I love living in California. Sigh.

Do you remember the breakfast cereal Crispy Critters? I thought they were just okay, but my younger sibling loved them. I think the brand was killed off by all the sick jokes circulating surrounding the name.

"Thoughts of you are like a wild fire in my mind, they just consume everything they touch.."
