"What's up, Doc?"
"What's up, Doc?" is a catchphrase of the cartoon character Bugs Bunny.
Amazingly, there is an answer to Bugs Bunny's question.
Asthma attacks, COPD problems, allergic reactions, labored breathing, certain cancers, heart problems, headaches, stress related illnesses, clinic and hospital visits, more children missing school, adults calling in sick at work, and more people prematurely dying is "what's up" due to the woodsmoke emissions that permeate our air everyday and takes our breath, health, and life away...day by day.
Unless all wood burning is prohibited/ended in our communities, our quality of life will continue to deteriorate, the air will become even more poisonous to breathe, our families will face a future of more suffering and illness, and visits to the clinic and hospital for temporary relief will become weekly occurrences.
Only be ending woodsmoke now will we ever be able to live our life to its fullest potential without the threat of being harmed and killed by woodsmoke emissions. Woodsmoke is trespassing on our property. Woodsmoke is an assault and battery on our person. Woodsmoke from a neighbor's wood burning takes way our right to breathe air without noxious and harmful particulates (PM2.5) in it. Woodsmoke is harmful to the environment. Woodsmoke does not dissipate into a vacuum, but it aimlessly drifts through the neighborhood bringing havoc and horror to others.
So "What's up, Doc?' when it come to woodsmoke....only illness, harm, and premature death.
It's time to end woodsmoke in our communities.
