This is how our sky looks at the moment from Albury in Australia during the day, due to the bushfires.
We’re wearing P2 masks outdoors when we absolutely need to go out.
We’ve learned a good tip is placing a wet towel soaked in water and vinegar and hung up indoors with a fan blowing on it is a good natural way to purify the air and clear smoke from indoors.
Thankfully, we finally got 2mm of rain today, which has helped deter new fires from starting and hopefully helping existing ones to be more easily contained.
Still, another hot week ahead and a long way to go to rebuild lost property and resettle displaced evacuees.
Half a billion wildlife lost, apparently. 😥😭
