Wondering how you would re-burn the black if prescribed fire & control lines were premptively placed around these communities. Or some veg. mgmt. was done at any point in the last century.<br /><br />I don’t discount the climate. But in doing so, we have to discuss things we can change instead of sitting on our hands & pointing the finger at CO2 every chance we get. <br /><br />It is unbelievably short sighted to discount the impact of 100 years of fire suppression, & lack of veg. mgmt. The natives were touching off fall burns before us, & before that lightening fires did their job to reduce fuels. The only reason it’s such a monumental issue now, is we’re built up to all those wildlands. It’s unfortunate the President can’t communicate these points with more elegance & bring every one to the table to discuss practical solutions.

Many people are keeling over from non-specific (and non-suspicious) "medical issues," some while driving vehicles. Fires and explosions are happening all over the place in all kinds of buildings (some not even fully constructed, others decades old and long vacant with no gas or electrical service). Bridges and facades are collapsing suddenly too. Often 2 or more fire/death events play out in close proximity.
