Are wildfires setting us back on air pollution?
Time
|September 29, 2025
WILDFIRES ARE REVERSING THE GAINS made by decades of clean-air standards in Canada and the U.S., according to new data published Aug. 28.
Long-term exposure to particulates from wildfire smoke brings health risks
Researchers at the University of Chicago released their annual Air Quality Life Index (AQLI), which tracks air pollution and how it impacts life expectancies. This year's report analyzed data collected in 2023. That year, as Canada faced its worst wildfire season in history, with more than 40 million acres of land burning, the flames caused air-pollution concentrations to rise to levels not seen since the AQLI began recording air-quality data (2011 in the U.S. and 1998 in Canada).

The D.C. Brief
WHEN DONALD TRUMP HAS SPOken of late, many Americans have been less interested in his words than his appearance. Is he wearing more makeup than usual? Any new bruises? Is he steady? It is perhaps a reasonable response after so much talk circulating this summer about whether Trump is at death's door or through it.

Patagonia's idea of a global investment
EARLIER THIS YEAR, A TITANIUM MINE WAS SLATED for construction on the edge of Georgia's Okefenokee Swamp, an unusually diverse ecosystem that is home to some of the country's most pristine wetlands. If built, the mine would likely have unleashed catastrophic pollution in the area.

The Risk Report
JUST THREE MONTHS AGO, ISRAEL and Iran fought a 12-day war that shook the Middle East. Missiles and drones flew in both directions, but with a major assist from the U.S., Israel established dominance of Iran's airspace, repeatedly struck nuclear and military targets across Iran, and killed 30 security commanders and 19 of Iran's nuclear scientists. Iran's retaliation accomplished little that might deter Israel in the future.

The right to live
I MOURN FOR CHARLIE KIRK'S family. I didn't agree with almost anything he said, but he had a right to speak. Just as he had a right to go on a work trip and return safely to his wife and two young children at home in the state we share, Arizona.

UNITED STATES OF FOOTBALL
Being a pro football fan can be good for you and for those around you. As a new NFL season begins, you don't have to know the difference between a cover-four and a Tampa-2 defense to put on a hat, make a friend at the shop, and build a new family tradition. In an era marked by epidemics of loneliness and political distrust, sports fandom is one simple and universally accessible medicine.
