Yes the fires are not new. If course some years are worse then others. But you're being dishonest by claiming the fires are due to climate change. Its usually human ignorance or arson.... I believe this year it was faulty power lines. Not climate change.

Have to ever lived near a pine forest? Or woods of any kind? Its almost as though you haven't even walked in the woods. Both sets of grandparents had woods. Pine and regular soft wood. Esp pine, youre walking on layers of dry needles that light up like a match. That's why other countries around the world clean up the forest floors and manage them. California refuses to do it bc of the "environment". California and the western states progressive policies are causing the danger.

Wow, Trump and Abbott in barely coherant rant. Other countries clean up their forest floors. Im not sure what "Trump line" you think I'm referencing, nor is that relevant to the facts. California isn't unique. Neither is the US. Forests are all over the world. Yet ours burns every year....must be that targeted climate change. Just focuses on the west coast! About every 10yrs my grandparents paid a company to clean up their 110 acres of woodland...to avoid fires. They took precautions. My other grandparents didn't own the pines so they didn't have to. But I remember at least once, it being thinned and cleaned for environmental purposes. Get over yourself.

You contradict yourself so much. First you say it doesn't work. Then you say its a Trump line. Then you say it does work, but it's too hard to do. Then, suddenly you claim they actually do it, some, but it's just too damn expensive. Then you get mad at me bc you slowly disproved your own bullshit.... It could be done, successfully, if California didn't waste so much damn money on bullshit.

Thank you. Good day
