    What sort of papers/info should I be reading in order to move somewhere where this stuff won't be an issue? (okay will be less of an issue..) I heard once a while back that you need somewhere with lots of lakes?

      If you're in the US the great lakes area of the US: Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Upstate New York.

        michigan, new york, etc., are getting fucked in regards to air quality right now. i feel like it’s been getting bad for like 2-3 days at a time every two weeks ever since the canadian wild fires

          New York's level of fucked depends on where in Upstate you live. Some regions have handled it better than others. But it's an adjustment to make from what I've been told. Would still take it over what the entire southeast US is getting.

            true, i’m just speaking from my experience. i live in the midwest and on like 3 different occasions in the past 6 weeks our air quality has hit 250, with it even reaching 275 at one point.

        I live in South America but tbh I don't mind moving anywhere if it means I can have some semblance of a normal life and not have to worry about water. I wonder if moving to somewhere in the Amazon is a good move.

        Australia? The island that's 80% desert and is hot as hell already? What's the reasoning behind that please?

        Thanks for the other advice. During initial covid lockdowns I was stranded in a place with a strong agricultural sector and I felt like the rest of the world could go to shit but I could still buy food from down the road, so that's good advice, yes.
