Motorin' Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago 1 hour ago, The Frankish Reich said: California is 1.5 times larger than Colorado, and a much larger percentage of Colorado is devoted to short grass prairie or irrigated farmland. You are so proud of your ignorance. But of course the main issue isn't forest fires or brush fires; it's development of residential land in areas prone to forest/brush fires. The Palisades fire would be a minor forest fire if it had occurred farther east into the Santa Monica mountains, where there is little development. Dampen the forests! There'd be water to dampen the forests if the California environmental laws didn't prioritize protecting an endangered fish over storing storm water and building reservoirs. Total failure to meet the needs of the people of California by the people screaming the most about the threat of climate change. 2

Total failure to meet the needs of the people of California by the people screaming the most about the threat of climate change. Two different things. Yes, California doesn't have the infrastructure to save water in years of excess snow melt, and winds up pitting environmental interests against residential interests. No, there is no such thing as dampening the forests (or scrublands) in any way that would result in any appreciable wildfire prevention. 1

The problem is communities and developers have promoted housing developments in fire prone areas with poor planning and infrastructure to deal with events like this. Evacuation routes are insufficient, water resources are insufficient, building codes are insufficient, zoning codes are poor. Communities may have been built in the 50s during a different climate. Climate is changing and society also needs to change ir the problem will repeat. There is no easy answer to stop fire hurricanes. 1 hour ago, The Frankish Reich said: Exactly. Brush fires, not forest fires. You seem to think a brush fire is harder to prevent than a forest fire. Brush fires should be very rare where they get out of hand. There is a reason that you never hear about other well populated areas catching on fire every few years.

I have stated multiple times that 10% of these fires are unavoidable but there is a reason by Cali had a higher percent of its state burn in one year than CO has had burn in the past 22 com ined. 1

Brush fires should be very rare where they get out of hand. There is a reason that you never hear about other well populated areas catching on fire every few years. Nearly all of Cal is in fire ecosystems where fire is what happens. Most western states are the same. Fuel/ vegetation management around structures is important. Hurricane force winds will push fire past any fuel free barrier. The problem is that people are moving into the hills and mountains where there is more vegetation. Combine that with drought and stronger storms and you get a lot of destruction. Same thing with people building in coastal areas getting wiped out by hurricanes. It’s people choosing to live in vulnerable places. 1

I was Cruz the area on Google earth last night and wondering where all theses forests were on the hills and valleys? Looks mostly arid. Of course there is the problem of landslides if you remove all the vegetation when it does rain. Theses morons and their fearless leader are to stupid to think of that. I'm sure the fact that there has been no rain since March with 100mph winds in the desert has no bearing on any of it. 2 hours ago, sherpa said: That Iranian general was preparing a plan to kill scores of US servicemen.
