And sadly there are people who believe such BU!!SH!T!
Is this an eye roll moment Yogi?
It’s always an eye roll moment Boo Boo
Lol... Obviously some woke uneducated idiot.
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?
Whew! At least the article did not blame President Trump.
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.
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.
Ah, yes, the days before lightning.
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.
Northern Australia has seasonal wildfires every year, without exception. There are birds there known colloquially as “fire hawks” (not a single species but several) that have learned to pick up a burning twig from the fires and carry it to somewhere where they expect their prey might be hiding in the (non-burning) underbrush, and drop it there to try to flush out their prey.
If birds can figure out this trick, it stands to reason ancient man at least had the ability to do the same.
Humans were burning off the forests and prairies every couple of years in the Americas before the arrival of the Europeans. In North eastern N AM part of the reason was to keep the forest floor clear for buffalo of which there was a large non plains population then. They burned the prairies as an aid to better hunting as game proliferated. In the Amazon they were keeping the forest clear for travel and for better hunting.
this from the article:
“According to the report, the authors of the study used a computer model — “similar to the ones that forecast trends in the stock market” — to determine humanity’s role in the fires 13,000 years ago. They allegedly found humans to be the “primary drivers” — both by direct ignition (i.e. campfires that got out of control, and other causes), and by overhunting herbivores, which led to underbrush growth that became fuel for wildfires.”
ummm using a computer model eh.. thats the ticket
