ALTADENA, California — Residents of California’s San Gabriel Valley had been coexisting with wildfire danger for generations before this week’s firestorm. Even relative newcomers, like me, know the house will shake when helicopters carrying water to fires in the foothills fly low overhead, or how to tape plastic to the windows and hose down our eaves.
We’ve swept ash and burnt leaves that have rained down in our yards. We trim the trees and hope our insurance companies won’t drop us. We nervously watch the hills. And even in this place where there is little dispute that the danger is only getting worse due to climate change, we don’t leave.

Seems like the writer is saying half the country(Trump voters) are rejecting the radical liberal dogma of "climate change"
Well damn right, it was radical liberal democrats incompetance that had a substancial part of the tragedy.
These climate Nazis need to be weeded out of polite, normal society. No one should heed their rantings and ravings.
“Climate Change?” Why don’t they blame the Easter Bunny for the fires? Makes as much sense.
Your neighbors are right, David. You're the idiot for thinking that "climate change" matters more than these things.
How much carbon was thrown into the atmosphere because of these fires? Are these Liberals blaming Newsome, Bass and the DEI fools for their stupid policies that make these fires so devastating? No? They want to blame Trump instead? They worry about “climate change” which they think is caused by “carbon” and they think the big problem is a Florida resident who currently holds no political office?
Obviously.
Politico and Yahoo, both paragons of math, physics, and all things climate. /s
Well, imagining such things does allow them to avoid the fact of looking into the mirror and admitting that, as journalists, they are right down there with studies majors and that the most simple real college math class would be as Group Theory to them.
DNC talking points.
But they're less effective now because they do not control the narrative.
Ahem, this was Politico via Yahoo which means complete BS.
They're trying to salvage Gavin Newsom's candidacy for 2028 because their bench is thin.
That's because, in that place, the people are almost entirely leftist libtards who believe that "climate change" is responsible for the destruction of LA, instead of misguided and incompetent democrat leadership.
The end of censorship is reaching X and now Facebook.
If we can get Youtube fixed the leftists will permanently be on the run.
If they cannot control political discourse all of their ugliness will be revealed.
The climate is dynamic and there’s nothing we can do about it.
If you don’t recognize that, you’re thinking magically.
If you click on my name you will see that twenty years ago I predicted the rise of a new religion that I said would be totally crazy.
It is here now.
It is called “climate change”.
He’s distraught that too many “Useful idiots” decided to stop being useful idiots.
So far as the fire disaster in California is concerned, everybody with an ounce of sense knows “climate change” is a distraction from the political incompetence of the governing bodies (read “Democrats”) in the state.
But if the gullible yokels there still want to think carbon dioxide is the ultimate culprit, they need to look at the trends in CO2 emission over the last 10 years from the US, China and India. And when they start raising hell over the next coal-fired power plant going up in the latter two countries, do let me know (I won’t hold my breath).
RE: Thinking magically.
I really like the movie Xanadu. Appeals to the other side of me, outside of the bitterness and yearning for revenge and justice.
It bombed at the box office but then grew in respect and has become a cult movie. Appeals to the inner knowledge that love can conquer all.
“Magic” from Xanadu.

““Climate Change?” Why don’t they blame the Easter Bunny for the fires? Makes as much sense.”
Well every body knows that the Easter Bunny is not science, whereas climate scientology is science. Don’t you see the difference?
Every magical thinker I’ve ever met has been a liberal.
The writer suggests that Climate Change Unbelievers are the cause of the fires. The fires have nothing to do with Democrat policies.
Absolutely correct.
But, ask any of them.. “What happened in Jan of 22 that directly effected the climate worldwide?”
They’ll have no answer.
Ask any of them..”What was/is being released into the air when structures/areas burn?”
They’ll stand there dumbfounded not knowing, not able to answer.
The first is the Tonga volcano as well as Iceland volcanism-lately.
The later is chemicals and toxins, etc such as asbestos.
They are ignorant. Plain and simple.
