Bridge failures will become more common as the effects of #climatechange — such as constant freeze–thaw in wintertime and extreme summer heat, conditions that most building materials were not designed for — reduce the lifespan of #infrastructure

[Northern Tornadoes Project 🇨🇦 @westernuNTP]

An NTP survey team will leave Western@London later this afternoon to investigate this damaging tornado in Ottawa today, as well as damage from any other tornadoes that may have occurred with this potent storm system.

Damage reports should be sent to ECCC if real-time, otherwise please send to@NTP_Reports, [email protected], or via our web page after the fact.

Our thoughts are with those affected by the tornado today. Thankfully not hearing reports of injuries at this time.

Novel idea: cow emissions contribute to #climatechange, now @DairyDistillery’s vodka-making process will be helping @MichiganMilk reduce its carbon footprint when it turns milk by-products into ethanol!

@O_S_P_E Any solutions for the forest-fire-generated poor air quality in Ottawa over the past couple of days, besides wearing a mask outdoors? 😷

@erica_fischer Definitely staying indoors today, that hazy smoke looks hazardous to me 💨 😷
