Light. Truth. Clarity.
Recent research indicates that wildfires are releasing significantly more air-polluting gases than previously understood, with some emissions comparable to those from human activities. These gases can convert into hazardous fine particles, contributing to prolonged air quality issues even after the fires have been extinguished.
Wildfires are emitting much more pollution than earlier studies suggested, driven by gases that easily turn into harmful particles. These findings reveal why smoke from fires can have lasting and serious impacts on air quality and health
