Newsom Misled The Public About Wildfire Prevention Efforts Ahead Of Worst Fire S

[Bronx]

This is a month old...I search the archives but no luck. Larry Elder if you're reading here is some great political ammo to un-seat Newsom.

Also...I didn't know Newsom has only been the governor of California for only two short years... Seems like forever. Notice these democrats waste no time in destroying the states and cities they run...what's say you democrats.


Newsom Misled The Public About Wildfire Prevention Efforts Ahead Of Worst Fire Season On Record

On Gavin Newsom's first full day in office, Jan. 8, 2019, the newly elected governor stood before the cameras, clad in jeans and sneakers and surrounded by emergency responders, and declared war on wildfires.

"Everybody has had enough," the governor said, announcing he'd signed a sweeping executive order overhauling the state's approach to wildfire prevention. Climate change was sparking fires more frequent, ferocious, and far-reaching than ever before, Newsom said, and confronting them would have to become a year-round effort.

The state's response, Newsom added, "fundamentally has to change."

But two-and-a-half years later, as California approaches what could be the worst

Yeah, it's really bad this year, and sadly, all preventable.
Logging has all but come to a stand still, so thick forests full of dead and bugged tress are in the tens of millions of acres.

To give you an idea, you can click on any of these cameras across the state, they all have one thing in common, dead trees and smoke.
Many show the fires currently burning, while others show smoke laden landscapes.

One thing I noticed that has changed over the previous years is response time, I've already had 12 fires in my area alone and they were out in 2 days.
In the past, these would have taken hundreds if not tens of thousands of acres, soo there is that.

But the problem still remains, cleaning up the forests, something the State has yet to even approach.

Bunker Hill and Bald Mtn are closest to me.

Is that due to better fire fighting or are the fires starting to repeat themselves on the same land where a previous fire had destroyed much of the area already?

Partly. The problem is, if the fire was two years ago, the first stage of growth is usually chaparral/Manzanita, a very volatile fuel that burns quick and extremely hot that returns within a couple of years and grows extremely fast because of all the nitrogen available from the previous burn.

This too is part of the problem, not clearing the old burn and replanting immediately.
Private property owners do, but not the State, but the USFS does immediately on Fed land.

Neither the USFS or the State is clearing the land, not allowing clear cutting, and to get a logging approval can get bogged down in red tape thanks to the fuckin EPA.
Be it birds, or mice, they force these environmental surveys which get stalled in court for a myriad of reasons.

When I bought my land 30 plus years ago, I had a one page Title search, when my brother bought his land ten years later, he had over 50 pages of EPA bull shit that added another 3 thousand to the purchase, now it's even worse.

The State made everything worse by stupid laws, every agency is cutoff by another agency at every turn, making every process taking all that much longer to move forward.

Nucelini is in a panic as his recall grows closer, so he may be in the process of cutting the bureaucracy and releasing funds, but it's still too late.
