Climate change fueling fires faster than predicted

Federal officials say climate change is intensifying droughts, leading to wildfires far worse than experts or models have predicted.

That is adding to the danger that accompanies one of the U.S. Forest Service’s primary methods of mitigation: the prescribed burn.

“Fires are outpacing our models,” Forest Service Chief Randy Moore said in a statement this week.

Moore pointed to escalating climate conditions as the reason why an otherwise routine prescribed burn in New Mexico earlier this year escaped to ignite the largest wildfire in state history.

“Climate change is leading to conditions on the ground we have never encountered,” he said.

“It’s May and fires are already behaving like it’s August or September,” he said. “The models can’t explain what’s happening. We knew climate change would have feedback, faster than expected — but even we didn’t expect this.”

Everything Spain faces, he added, is worse for the U.S. “We’re all having big fires too early,” he said.

Is the U.S. Forest Service a bunch of Pyromaniacs ?

‘Climate change fueling fires faster than predicted”

If Europe believed that, they wouldn’t be re-opening their coal plants.

Gee, and it wouldn’t have anything to do with rich liberals in California building their dear sweet homes and retreats in areas that had that way less population in 1980 or 1970, let alone 1960 and that the wildfires are a natural part of the lifecycle in those bush/wooded areas.

Idiots. Everybody knows that trees are the primary cause of forest fires.

I fear a tyrannical government more than the Climate Change theory.

Non issue climate change allegedly fueling fires faster. Or not.
