I always thought it was Gerbil Warming, in honor of Richard Gere.
Great photo, I used to live in Dos Vientos Ranch.
“If only Americans were more serious about climate change...None of this would be happening in California /s”
A couple of years ago when Texas was undergoing a severe drought and fires, I remember how so many celebrities and CA politicians were publicly gloating at Texans misery and saying they deserved it because they were conservatives who didn’t believe in global warming.
Looks like Karma is working overtime this year, and it doesn’t seem to give a damn that Moonbeam and his minions have instituted the most stringent CO2 restrictions in the planet.
The only thing more ignorant then Moonbeam is his followers. I'm from East Tennessee. But I have enough common sense to understand that an area averaging less then 20 inches of rain per year, with a very low humidity, and lots of fuel for fires meaning anything from vegetation to structures, will burn fast if they catch fire. The region is a tinderbox. It always has been. The developers built cities in a semi desert environment.
To make it safer and liveable the state is going to have to re-think fire prevention and fire fighting. That will mean money. It takes water. Why not ocean water piped through a dedicated piping system ran on top of these mountains and staged high capacity storage tanks with high capacity nozzles piped to different locations down hill for coverage to be activated when needed? That is no more an insane idea then the states arcane environmental laws and the money wasted on those policies.
The fires in several places have been arson....and another one was caused by individuals throwing “ fireworks.”
There was also people starting dumpster fires in an “impromptu gathering.”
I guess “impromptu gathering” is the new MSM word for riot.
But the idiot governor would rather report the fires were caused by global warming.
Others say it’s Trump’s fault.
California is full of morons apparently.
And the shadow government pawns are starting the fires.
save the pets, but let the libs fend for themselves
