Hawaii is now ground zero for global warming. Why is it that the very wealthy now want to gobble up the burnt terrain? Strange.

The neurotic obsession with Climate Change caused a fundamental breakdown in the taxpayer-funded civil responsibilities.

Okay, then let’s prosecute for ~500 manslaughter charges.

These people claim to believe completely in climate whatever; how could they not have taken it into account?

It wasn't climate change, it was because of some schmuck decided that "water requires conversations around equity". While Mauii was burning this twerp was sitting around sipping tea flapping his wrists about equity

Climate change is a pagan religion. It relieves the believer of any responsibility for daily events. Life is in the hands of the fickle gods. It’s pathetic to watch these helpless, weak people and listen to their pathetic excuses.

I wonder if that pathetic excuse will work everywhere.

IRS agent: Your tax return contains many, many errors.
Me: Any mistakes were amplified by climate change.

What Saved The ‘Miracle House’ In Lahaina?

The historic structure on Front Street is the last house standing in a neighborhood reduced to rubble.

...

During renovations, Millikin installed a commercial-grade steel roof, something that definitely would have provided better protection from flying embers than shingles. At first, Millikin thought this might have made the biggest difference in why his home was spared.

But Michael Wara, the director of the Climate and Energy Policy Program at the Stanford Wood Institute for the Environment, said it was likely the Millikins’ decision to dig out the existing landscaping directly surrounding the house and replace it with river stones that made the biggest difference.

“What folks in the wildfire business call the zone zero or the ember ignition zone, is kind of a key factor in whether homes do or do not burn down,” Wara said.

Having nothing combustible in the 5 feet directly around a house is enormously important.

Millikin said the decision to install river stones for about a meter around the house was not actually aimed at fire prevention. He wanted to prevent runoff from landscaping from creating water and termite damage. But it may have saved his home.

Regulations in California have typically focused on a 30-foot perimeter around homes known as “Zone A” in firefighting. But Wara said that research on the thousands of homes that have burned in California in recent years has shown that it’s really what’s installed in the immediate few feet of a home that makes the biggest difference.

So the guv knows that for sure? Nope. Simply politics. Gotta tout the global warming scam. Tell me, guv, what warmed the Earth between two ice ages? SUVs? Coal-fired generating plants?

I think the real issue is people so dumbed down they can’t see outside their little world to see obvious signs all around them of things needing periodic attention or actions to not have “amplified the cost of human error” situations.
