LRC: lets solve the West Coast wildfire problem

For the record: I wouldn’t care, people can take stupid risks if they want, except no one except the government will insure these houses and so taxpayers (state and federal) are on the hook each time these huge fires happen.

Curtailing global warming would definitely help.

Get rid of Gavin Newsom.

Global Warming? LOL! the 90s want you.

Bring back controlled burns

They need to rake the forest floors and the ground in areas where houses are. I heard they do this in Finland and you don’t see forest fires there.

They’re starting again in California. I said, you gotta clean your floors, you gotta clean your forests — there are many, many years of leaves and broken trees and they’re like, like, so flammable, you touch them and it goes up.

Rake the forests like they do in Europe.

Fool's task. We can certainly mitigate to lessen the impact when they occur, but until we can stop dry Santa Ana offshore winds and end perpetual drought in an arid desert environment, you might as well try and stop hurricanes on the east coast or humidity in the south. Fires have always been part of the so cal environment and always will be.

This isn’t a solvable problem, any more than the southeastern hurricane problem is solvable. There are mitigations, with varying costs and benefits, but wildfires are a core part of the western climate.

Santa Ana winds are not offshore. They come from the high deserts.

As long as California remains in a mega drought there will be fires there. Countries don’t care enough to do anything about climate change, best we can hope for now is that we get desperate enough to start geo engineering the weather.

Perhaps the leader of LAFD has some responsibility, and her strong commitment to diversity for the last three years

California is godless place and such god has sent retribution in Form of trump and fire. California needs to come back to god

California needed Donald Trump. While Gavin Newsom was hobnobbing at exclusive restaurants the Donald predicted the calamity that would follow:

Donald Trump is a sage ... (thank god he is at the helm of the US) ...
Donald Trump was mocked for sounding the alarm on the California water/fire crisis during his interview with Joe Rogan.
Turns out, he was right.
Trump spent nearly 7 minutes ranting about the issue, blasting Newsom for doing nothing to fix the problem.
Trump specifically discussed the Californian Delta Smelt controversy, where rainwater is wasted by being directed into the Pacific Ocean to protect a tiny fish species.
"You know in Los Angeles, you can't get proper amounts of water."
"In order to protect a tiny little fish, the water up north gets routed into the Pacific Ocean. Millions and millions of gallons of water gets poured [into the Pacific]."
"I got it all done. Nobody could believe it. It was all done. I said, I got it. You got so much water. All you have to do is sign, and [Newsom] didn't wanna sign."
"Every time I go to California, I say you have so much water. They don't
know it... I'm telling you, people living in Beverly Hills, they turn off the water. Same thing with the electric."

As the LA basin gets less consistent rainfall patterns these events become much more likely. You need REALLY dry brush to get the devastation we are seeing.

Call in the Air Force jets to circle around the fire, effectively generating a large tornado which sucks all the flames towards the center.

Then the fire department surrounds the concentrated flame chimney and soaks the fire down.

For years, I have been sounding the alarm about the Oklahoma tornado crisis, but the sociopathic Oklahoma Rethuglicans never heed my warnings. SEED THE CLOUDS!!!!!
