That was nice of Zinke.
Everyone should Publicly Thank the Sierra Club for all they have done. I will bet my last nickel that most if Not All of those affected in SoCal regularly Donate and Fully Support the Actions of the Sierra Club and the Environmental Communist Groups.
“I will lay this on the foot of those environmental radicals that have prevented us from managing the forests for years and, you know what, this is on them.”
AMEN.
Lived in Fla. since 1969. My state has been doing controlled back burning as far back as I can remember. Even with all the lighning we get, wild fires are fairly rare.
Like the droughts, human error and constant winds don’t have anything to do with it; management or not.
Sometimes shit happens. We have to stop constantly looking for someone to blame. Acts of God exist for a reason.
What really needs to be investigated is why it cost as much or more to “passively manage” the forests. Where did the money go?
Jihadists were advised to time their arson “preferably in the later part of night to the early hours of morning when people are generally asleep,” and instructions were offered on how to block off exits to inflict casualties. For wildfires, ISIS said to look for dry brush “as fire cannot endure in damp or wet environments.” Arsonists were encouraged to leave the mark of ISIS somewhere near the fire site with spray paint or black marker. Suggested target locations for arson attacks, the magazine stated, “include houses and apartment buildings, forest areas adjacent to residential areas, factories that produce cars, furniture, clothing, flammable substances, etc., gas stations, hospitals, bars, dance clubs, night clubs, banks, car showrooms, schools, universities, as well as churches, Rafidi [Shiite] temples, and so forth. The options are vast, leaving no excuse for delay.” https://drudgereport

In New York HizHonor can’t handle 4 inches of snow either... bi-coastal liberal ‘elites’ are incompetent.
Growing up in Montana, we had a thriving timber industry. a fire that grew to 1000 acres was huge. Since then the spotted owl and other environazi invoked restrictions to timber harvesting has created huge tracts of land ready to torch in an instant. Case in point hundreds of thousands of acres of dead timber from bark beetles - tree huggers fight (with the help of the 9th circus court) to prevent harvesting.
Well, how does global warming do when 100,000+ acre fires break out all over. . . . . .
Me too.
The horrific fiery deaths of hundreds of people were caused by Jerry Brown, Nancy Pelosi and all the environmentalists taking sides. They took the side of grubs and moths and let their fellow human beings die on the alter of environmentalism.
California quit clearing brush and logging dead trees awhile ago. It is why every fire could look like these
