Smoke from Canadian wildfires
has blanketed Wisconsin and most of the day showed the sun as just a dim red ball. For those DU members who are too young to have lived through the '60's smog in urban America you get kind of a feeling for what nearly every day was like in L.A., Chicago etc. The fetid stench of air pollution and miserable effects on life were a constant pain.
I remember driving into big cities and as you got to where you could see the skyline you saw the brown haze sitting like a muffin top over the city. As you got closer if you had your windows down the awful stench would roll in and the haze was obvious at ground level.
The GQP/MAGA lunatics would love to completely gut the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act. This is the "good old days" they want to go back to along with a society with morals, norms, law and justice from the Salem Witch Trial days. Here is a shot of Milwaukee and a some other shots of the "good old days". You know Roberts and Alito idolize the days of "yore".
While the Canadian wildfire smoke will eventually go away the memories of the way the air and water were in the "good old days" won't.

city. It looks like a castle. Built with sandstone it turned black over the years. Did not look like the same building after it was sand blasted!
we’ve had a temporary reprieve here in New England after the passage of a cold front, but the smoke will return on Saturday
