For general wildfire smoke information, as well as emergency information for Californians, check out our blog post, “Wildfire Smoke: How It Impacts Air Quality and Your Health.”

Wildfires have caused evacuations in at least 10 US states, British Columbia and Alberta, Canada so far this summer. With so many being forced from their homes, Molekule wants you to be prepared and know where to go in case of emergency.

This post is designed to serve as a resource for those across the US and Canada looking for information on evacuation shelters, air quality alerts, tips on assembling an emergency kit for your family, and what mask to have on hand to minimize the health risks associated with breathing harmful smoke particulates.
