The California wildfires..made worse by man made global warming...a relevant chart.

  1. It is not the people, it is the energy source they use. Sounds like you are ignorant about other sources of energy that don't emit CO2.

  2. Severe wildfire seasons like the one that has devastated California this fall may occur more frequently because of climate change, scientists say.

    “This is looking like the type of year that might occur more often in the future,” said A. Park Williams, a climate scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory in Palisades, N.Y.

    The reason is an expected impact of climate change in California: increasing year-to-year variability in temperature and precipitation that will create greater contrast between drought years and wet years. And that can lead to much greater fire risk.

  3. Not to worry, an ice age is coming any day now and will douse the fire.

    fraudcurrents believes that co2 is like quantum supposition in schrodingers cat thought experiments.

    you don't know which weather event a molecule of man made co2 causes until you observe the event happening.

    He observes it so man made co2 causes it.

    Why isn't this in the science and technology section?

    Years ago I was suggesting that areas in California/Southern France etc. that are prone to forest fires spend a little money on putting up towers along the ridgeline that can deliver a steady water mist over the surrounding area ( down wind ). The area would be sodden wet for miles. A piddling fire break in the woods soon over grows and has to be really wide to stop the burning leaves being blown across.
    Penny pinching politicians just wring their hands a bit until the next one.

    Because "global warming" is not science, it is political bullshiat.
