5 Long Term Effects Resulting from the Colorado Wildfires

The Colorado wildfires have been named as some of the worst wildfires to ever hit America. Many people claim they’ve never seen anything similar, and combined with other recent wildfires in the western part of the country, the Colorado wildfires are likely to leave behind a level of devastation that nature and humanity won’t easily recover from:

1.     Air pollution in the area is pretty bad, to say the least, and it is estimated that the conditions won’t get better for some time. Colorado’s dry weather is contributing to that as there isn’t enough precipitation to help clean the air.

2.     On top of the respiratory problems caused by COVID, the dark legacy of the Colorado wildfires are also leading to a greater number of people – and especially children – who have developed respiratory ailments.

3.     Doctors are even saying that they are at a loss as to predict the long term exposure to wildfire smoke that many US citizens have to cope with, especially in areas like Colorado. This is because there is a concerning lack of information, as there have never previously been recorded similar volumes of wildfires and smoke clouds in the area.

4.     Smoke travels pretty far, and the increase in air pollution can therefore affect cities and wildlife habitats alike for hundreds if not thousands of miles.

5.     Endangered species that have already struggled at the brink of extinction could actually become extinct as a result of the fires, as the animal kingdom is likely far more affected by the Colorado wildfires than their human counterparts.

If you or those you know have been impacted by devastating fires, you can rely on home remodeling Fort Collins experts to provide you with ways to rebuild your home or office.
