(20,837 posts)2. so far the response
I hear is that some want to move where the BC fire smoke doesn't reach (this is NW Washington).
It really was bad last year but I don't think people are embracing climate change yet.

(767 posts)3. CALIFORNIA HAS SMOKE AND SMOG ALL SUMMER
I thought about BAD AIR last summer from all the smog and smoke. There was not escape from the smoke no matter how high (10,000 feet.) In the past you could escape the smog at high elevations. The smoke was everywhere but less thick at high elevations. I am not ready for another REPEAT of BAD air..........I am low at a low elevation of only 1,000 feet.....
