Does Global warming make people have ender reveal parties with incendiary devices?

Global Warming is more leftist BS.

How about some sickos with matches and gasoline having a role in these fires.

[Home-of-the-lazy-dog]

I think moronic peaceful protesters starting forest fires may have been a major factor.

It is an interesting technical article which demonstrates clearly that Governor Dimsley of Washington along with the Governors of Oregon and California are either ignorant fools or habitual liars or probably both.

Here is what is the cause of those forest fires.

In the early 70s it was “OLD GROWTH”

Then it was the “Spotted owl”

Then it was the “fish”

Then it was Bruce Babbit running around with a drip can saying we should BURN BABY BURN! BTW Bruce Babbit was the one who said that the idea of private property was outdated.

YES it is Climate change that is causing these fires-Political Climate change. When you let idiots and retards control natural resources that are sustainable by forestry practices, this is the result.

Here is a fact. Fires, whether it be natural, or man caused are devastating to forests eco systems-and that includes prescribed burns.

Management of those forests by logging does the exact opposite. it enhances the forest eco systems.

I’ve lived in California for 50 years. Starting from May to October we don’t get a drop of rain. Everything turns tinder dry, so any fire however it starts has free rain until it is put out.

It’s been like that pretty much forever around here.

I believe my lying eyes.

Er . . . NO!

I live in Western Washington, and our summer was a bit cooler and wetter than normal, at least until about mid July. The warm weather then extended until about the second week of September, which is normal. During the summer, we had one or two days over 90 degrees, which is about normal.

The winter and spring were wetter than normal. There was nothing here to suggest that unusual weather caused by climate change had anything to do with the fires, despite what Gov. Inslee claims. In fact, about a month ago, the Director of Public lands said that few if any of the fires were started by lightning strikes, and most appeared to have been caused by human carelessness (cigarettes, campfires, etc.), or - in a couple of cases - arson.

The convenient thing about claiming that climate change is causing these fires (or any other specific weather event) is that the claim is non-falsifiable, and hence dubious as scientific proof. It is a wild card that can be invoked to explain even the most contradictory scenarios.

In all the areas with fires find out their history of forest management.

[fireman15]

I do kind of hate it that most of these experts are basically forced to acknowledge the existance of “global warming” when writing articles like this one, if they still want to have a job the next week.

[RideForever]

Yea, right. Antifa firebug caught setting two fires in my area off I-5. Actually made local news. And the lightening storms are not to be taken lightly around here. The rumble actually shakes the bed and lasts over 3 seconds.

And don’t be fooled by the picture of a long road with several back-fires set to control an oncoming blaze. Somewhere there is a list of a dozen or more perps caught setting fires around the same time.

Warm temperatures DO NOT MEAN “Man is changing the Climate”!!!!!

8/24/2020 -FR - Is California Going Up in Flames?

[American in Israel]

Nope, and definitely not in Oregon and Washington. That was pure weather. Their forests normally get a fair amount of summer rain, but didn't this year because the jet stream moved. They dried out in July and August. Then a high pressure zone over the eastern side of the Cascades sent a huge amount of hot dry air west of the Cascades down into the dried out forests there, and that was all she wrote. Climate change had nothing to do with it.

Most of California's August fires were caused by a massive dry lighting storm which started thousands of fires over about a 30,000 square mile area. We simply can't tell how many climate-induced fires there'd have been otherwise.

Plus the same dry lightning storm brought high winds with it so we can't tell if "climate change" drying out of northern California's August fires made them worse. The storm's winds blew some of the lightning-caused fires up into huge ones overnight.

The doomies here are arguing that "climate change" causes everything they don't like.

Speaking of Global Warming, the United States has been going down in CO2 emissions for quite some time, even with people deemed deniers in government.
