Smoke across North America is making for interesting sunsets. Air quality is a concern however consider the context the Asian developing market has for years had terrible air quality in their bid for economic prosperity we often see masked walkers and people coping. Forest fires are a bit out of our control and a few interesting sunsets is not worth the unpleasantness  as well as effect on the old.

particles of smoke that come from the fires can stay in the air and move through the Earth’s atmosphere – all the way [from western North America] to the East Coast. The smoke sits more than a mile above the Earth’s surface, but can move down through strong winds called jet streams and have an impact on air quality Source earth sky news..
