Finland Doesnt Have a Fire Problem Because they Rake leaves a Lot

Here’s a good article that pre-dates the politicization of the current CA fires; from Mother Jones:

They spend so much energy trying to think their way out of the carbon problem [assuming it’s even a problem smh] they’ve been paralyzed. The most effective way to rid the forest of excess fuel is prescribed burning.

And they’ve fallen way behind—in a nutshell, poor forest management.

I was looking at one that said the fire that did damages were sagebrush and such that embers flew into Paradise.

But ya. You can't get away from "global warming did it" = so I gave up..I'll look -thanks

I wish I would have saved the link but I read where native Indians in that part of CA were threatened by wildfires centuries ago. The winds are driven by a mechanism in the Pacific Ocean. That’s been going on for who knows how long.

What’s maddening is climate change isn’t required to understand it yet that’s been the prime focus of CA forest management.

no one said GW did it, you are a liar. What they said is GW contributed.

The *proximal cause* of the CA wildfires is poor forest management. Whatever contribution climate change makes it is both remote—AND debatable. Forest fires are a natural event in nature. Fire cleans out dead debris and brush. Large trees can withstand small fires that consume debris on the forest floor. Trouble starts when flames reach the canopy.

Over the last hundred years naturally occurring fires have been artificially suppressed in CA. In other words, it’s not a heat problem but a fuel problem. Put simply—there’s too much of it and coupled with the wind this time of year it becomes a ticking time bomb.

And anyone who thinks ‘changing the climate’ will help matters has no business mocking Trump for his leaf raking comments because Trump at least has the book open on the right page.

Again, go back through thread and find any of my posts that mentions climate change.

Fuel is no problem if it’s wet all the time. Combine that with extreme HEAT in CA and you have a problem.

Of course fires are natural and they’ve suppressed them recently. That’s because PEOPLE are now living there. Derp!

People are mocking Trump on the raking because it was another one of his fucking lies.

Trump hasn’t even opened the book.

Yes, in a properly managed system you'd have firebreaks to prevent wildfires from spreading.

"As mentioned before, temperature affects the sparking of wildfires, because heat is one of the three pillars of the fire triangle. The sticks, trees and underbrush on the ground receive radiant heat from the sun, which heats and dries potential fuels. Warmer temperatures allow for fuels to ignite and burn faster, adding to the rate at which a wildfire spreads. For this reason, wildfires tend to rage in the afternoon, when temperatures are at their hottest."

Keep demonstrating your ignorance, cunt. I enjoy watching your self-humiliation.

Jesus H Christ. You cannot even google something and get it fucking right. Get an education. Learn something. Or just STFU. You mental fucking midget.

lol

The gnat is back again.

Why do you insist on making a fool of yourself on a regular basis?

See that quote, dumbfuck? They're talking about AMBIENT heat.

Go back to sucking Tom's dick, waterboy. That's what you do best. Things like reading comprehension, science and simple arithmetic are too much for you.

Oh, and by the way. There is a reference there to radiant heat. Obviously you do not know the difference between radiant heat and ambient heat. Dumb fuck.

I'm sorry, you're mumbling, gnat. Pull Tom's dick out of your mouth and try to say something coherent.

Coherent? From You? :rofl2: Sorry, I misspoke. Go back to your cocksucking waterboy. You're out of your league here

A mental challenged midget handicapped fucking monkey is above your intellectual level Gomer. Of course you already know that.

Ambient is immediate surroundings, you dumb fucking illiterate. You know, the heat absorbed by the SURROUNDING fuels? You know, outside temps that are high in the afternoon in the SURROUNDING air?

Goddam, you have the intelligence of a fucking doorstop
