2035 * bullet train - Does this mean more fires?

Using fire to clear terrain for the tracks?

If you plot out the recent fires you can see the course they lay on. California Statewide Fire Map
Three in a row.
I didn't look at any earlier years, but they're at the link.

I ran into this as well along the way which shows the recent fires are in a Tier 2-3 level.

Pick the map and it will bring up a large map you can zoom in and out on.

I may need better fire maps.

There were previous suggestions that California was using fires to get additional money from the feds that it was using for non-fire related spending.

I was thinking that they might use fire to obtain “emergency” federal funds to keep their bankrupt government afloat. Essentially, getting the people of the other 49 states to pay for their socialism.
