Bingo! We have a winner.
LOL. In my writings I’ve not been kind at all to the “no burn” idiocy. It’s appalling how many people cannot comprehend “fire ecology” yet build houses abutting the wildland with no defensible space and construction ill-suited for the inevitable threat. The satellite view of Paradise in the before shots is rather telling: Too much vegetation and homes situated in too close of proximity. A recipe for disaster repeated in every fire of the type, compounded by weather in respect to Paradise...an obviously tragic result.
It really comes down to stupid-simple chemistry and the fact that nature is still smarter than us silly old humans, but the fact remains that the idiocy is centered principally in the urbanites and their offspring. Sadly, some older Republicans have fallen into this trap of climate change and fires being “bad”; a mind is a terrible thing to waste.
