Can’t be true. All the news readers say Trump is lighting the fires.

The forest service and some counties in Colorado have a fire safe procedure where grass is cut short 30 feet around a house. Up to 100 feet stuff is allowed up to 6 inches. No trees within 30 feet. This has saved lots of houses in forest areas but Kalifornia will not allow it.

We should welcome migrant grasses and not disparage them, global warming is making it impossible for them to survive in their native lands

Maybe it would help to plant lots of natural ground cover plants, such as Ice Plants or other ground dwelling succulents. Meanwhile, more controlled burning is needed, without regard to any special rodents living near extinction.

How much of CA is naturally habitual without water pipelines? Of course, in socal, it’s no longer habitable because it is dem controlled.. unlike nor cal.. o wait.
Any reasonable environmental expert would simply depopulate ca.. but then that’s how many ec votes.

I call b.s. It took a professor 3,000 miles away to figure out that Calizuela is overrun with non-native grasses? Please!

Then why doesn’t the Mediterranean burn down every year?

Grass diversity, what kind of bigoted monsters could be against that?

Sweden seems to be having a similar problem with invasive little arsonists.

I was born and raised in Calif., but left in 1982. What they have is Star Thistle, a low growing, oil laden plant whose name more than describes it. Beekeepers brought the plant in it has taken over as it can flourish with little moisture.

Ok, so they’re saying that you can allow massive amounts of fuel to build up but it’s the GRASS that matters?

Nothing more than a veiled admission that California has failed to manage their habitat. Fire is nature’s way of cleaning up garbage and starting fresh. Unicorn farts and laws repealing the laws of physics just don’t cut it.
