Yep, if people don’t pull their shit together we are gonna need to ban those camping or the fire will effectively erase camping grounds. (yes, I know natural cause fire exists.) We still have somewhat advantage in terms of fresh water precipitation so we don’t need to import drinking water. But we still need some general civil engineering to deal with those flood/fire/heatwaves/arctic vortex cause they are going to be more common.
But not invulnerable. Water is a growing problem in the Prairies, and as we’re seeing from drought conditions in Southern Alberta, Canada is not immune from the problems we’re seeing in the US.
They’re far from invulnerable, the nature of climate change is feedback loops, all it’s going to take is an unusually hot, dry summer and some bad luck and you’ve got crop failure.
The number of places that don’t burn or flood is only going to get smaller as climate change ramps up

Everyone knows it, and they’ll still overlook that like 98% of wildfires are caused by negligence vs nature.
Okay but the prairies are fucking hugeee

As a Manitoba resident, let me tell you, if we’ve got one thing going for us, it’s that we have more water in our province than most countries.
