Humans are doomed to repeat burning of their surrounding environment every thirteen thousand years.

Since we can’t rely on the media anymore, there’s a lot of speculation going on about the recent catastrophic fires being started by environmental nut jobs to show us how bad climate change is. I mean, wouldn’t the media tell us if they knew? Wouldn’t they?

When the o’holy grant money is at stake, anything is fair game, including rational thought.
This is direct result of too many people gaining access to higher academic education.

And amazingly it was caucasians that started all the fires, killed themselves and then left the western hemisphere vacant for the remaining indigenous people to heal the tortured land. Not.

When the o’holy grant money is at stake, anything is fair game, including rational thought. I was having similar thoughts.
The competition for Global Warming study grants must be fierce.
It must take wilder and wilder flights of fancy to get the attention of those approving research grants.
They must of read this submission and thought 'This guy is a complete nut bag. We just have to see what he comes up with just for laughs!'

But the cited study is based on megafauna evidence gathered at La Brea Tar Pits — from 13,000 years ago. According to the NYT author, scientists have “concluded that the disappearance of … large mammals in this region … was linked to rising temperatures and increased fire activity spurred by people.” If I remember right the only thing that you get out of the tar pits is skeletons.
So, how does a credible scientist deduce from skeletons in a tar pit that those skeletons died in a forest fire or died of starvation caused by a forest fire?
And considering that most forest fires are caused by lighting strikes how could one logically deduce that forest fires 12,000 years ago was caused by humans?
This is not research it is fairy tales.

Trump is almost Sniffer’s age, of course, he is responsible for something 13,000 years ago.

So, a tiny little population started wildfires that completely destroyed the megafauna? Wow, that's just amazing. Urinate off, Panic Porn spreaders.
Nice two-lister topic.

Its the only way they can improve the GloBULL Warming gambit by saying that it started much longer ago than we previously thot!

“peer-reviewed study in a prestigious academic journal”
Instead of adding credibility to the “research” this only shows how bankrupt and political our academic field is.

Might this have been caused by whatever event provided the heat to start the great melt of the Younger Dryas mega floods?
