"Climate Change" is causing the LA fires (pan to video of arsonist setting a palm tree on fire)

Of course it is.  :glare:

Wildfires and the Hoary Hoax of a Burning Planet

by David Stockman
"H
ere they go again, blaming the wildfire catastrophe in Los Angeles on Climate Change when the actual culprits are the very politicians who never stop howling about what is a monumental hoax.

In the first place, of course, the current raging California fires, like those which have periodically gone before, are largely a function of misguided government policies. Officials have essentially curtailed the supply of water available to LA firefighters, even as they have drastically increased the supply of combustible kindling and vegetation which feeds these wildfires. The latter, in turn, are being amplified by the seasonal Santa Ana winds, which have visited the California coast since time immemorial."

Today's, January 14, edition of the NY Times has a cartoon depicting how misinformation spreads like wildfire.  How true.

So are you saying the OP's link is misinfo

 

or

 

the narrative that "climate change" (and not arson and/or direct energy weapon) is the catalyst for the wildfires is misinfo?

According to several studies the current temperature is about 1 to 1.5 degree Celsius higher than 100 years ago.

Should we believe that that make such a huge difference to the current fires?

Nope.  Just a general comment about misinformation.

That's your interpretation.  Not mine.

Could this fire have started 100 years ago? Was there dry brush and high winds this time of year 100 years ago? yes of course. The biggest thing that changed is you have millions of people occupying the land and they have ready access to lighters and other ways to start fires, not to mention electrical lines which are known source of fires and even prompting new lines to be built underground.

periodic bush and forrest fires is normal world wide, some places there is more fire because of human activity, other places it is less. 

 

But still tragic for those who get hurt one way or the other

Who thought it is a good idea to build lots of wooden houses in areas which had high fire risks since a long time?

 

Actually many of the more expensive homes are cement and steel structures.

That is not the one I was referring to, but it depicts a very similar message.  I did not bookmark the cartoon I was referring to and have not been able to locate it.  I do recall it was a firefighter in action with the word "misinformation" coming from his water hose.

Believe that you will believe anything. The climate has always changed we are a product on Earth and mother Earth will eliminate use the moment we are an issue. Most don’t know that the CO2 content on Earth is 0.04% of Tha man’s contribution is .011% an insignificant amount. Now we need CO2 for plant growth without it we die not mention that according to ice core samples this is the lowest CO2 has ever been. We won’t talk about how Tesco and all big supermarkets keep the veggies fresh yip you guessed it the bags are filled with Co2. More CO2 more growth but sadly the masses just much away and fall for the constant barrage of endlessly propaganda while Chine India build coal fired power stations by the month while in the West we pay and are squeezed daily.

Please disregard my last post.  It's actually from Texas based Reform Austin.

If the link doesn't work you may have to print it out in your search.  It's by Nick Anderson, staff cartoonist.
