Well it turns out fuel load not weather or climate change determines wild fire danger.
So one less thing the cali political flunkies can blame on climate change.

What I don't get is how someone can say they're an environmentalist when clearly dont even understand basic merit badge level forestry.

The relatively strict emissions standards have done a lot. But even the cleaner-burning cars and trucks (diesel particulate filter) emit boatloads of carbon dioxide. How much fossil fuel does the US burn every day? That's a big, constant fire.

You have some illogical arguments in there, but we're working on that.

It's not unusual for some people to moan about California. Any idea why you do?

You don't think climate change is real, or it's not caused by human behavior, or what?
The United States burns about 20 million barrels of oil and that's only 1/3 of the total energy used.

Enjoy the break in $4 a gallon gas prices.

Last place 6 time in a row is doing a lot?
Bahahahahahahahahaha
You're funny.

When ever California is on fire we get the smoke, they are trying to export their failed political ideas and refugees here.
