    “But our simulations show that if you allow fire to continue in an area, then the fire could become self-limiting, where each subsequent fire is smaller than the previous one.”

    Pretty sure most states have done this for decades. Why are progressive states so slow to catch up?

    While conservatives continue to act like this is baseball in the 90s and it’s just a coincidence that every record is being broken (surely not steroids!) the rest of the world realizes this is a serious problem that’s not going away. The boomers destroyed the US economy and aren’t content, they need to destroy the whole planet too.

      Considering how in bed russians are with the American right, the question is really what’s your interest in misdirecting us here, eh comrade?

    The climate alarmists will say fires have been more intense and frequent in the West. They will say there have been more bad storms in the Southeast. Since when? Records have been kept? Newsflash for the climate alarmists:
    There have been forest fires in the West for thousands of years and there were more trees 200 years ago then there are now.
    Lightning hitting a forest didn’t start in the 1900’s and is not more intense today than it was 100 years ago. Hurricanes have been happening for thousands of years.
    In the 1950’s there were several bad hurricanes that in today’s dollars would be huge as in tens of Billions. And how much has the climate changed or warmed in the past 100 years? A miniscule amount. But the climate alarmist industry led by Algore will continue their scare tactics.

    I’m surprised there is any rain forest left. When I was a kid I donated and had a tree saved by me. That was 30 years ago and there is obviously nothing we can do as those countries continue to burn them down. In regards to forest fires here, I’m not sure why it’s still up for debate. We need to allow logging to thin out the forest. I’d rather have millions of acres of thinner forest that are quick to be put out if a fire starts, than millions of acres of dense forest that lose a million acres a year in fires.
