Another year of air pollution across the country to coerce us into accepting climate change initiatives. Each media instance of blaming fires on global warming inspires a thousand more pyrophilacs with confidence that if they set fires, the fires will be attributed to global warming and not them. It does worsen just about every year with the unhealthy air quality and crazy venusian sunsets. But it’s not global warming.
Two straight years of significantly higher than average rainfall (thanks El Nino). You think that would lead to a much larger than normal fuel load and a more active fire season? Why yes. That repeating pattern used to be called weather. But now it’s ‘extreme’ weather caused by climate change.
