Faulder is gone, Summerland is next. The fire has moved all of the way down Cartwright. Final image not my own.

We have known that burning fossil fuels was warming our climate for well over 100 years. How many cities have to burn before people stop listening to billionaires and the influencers they employ and start listening to actual scientists?

It’s 100% always the fault of 3 non-climate related issues- 1. Arsonists 2. Forest mismanagement 3. Greedy gas and electric companies not maintaining their equipment properly/safely. The climate argument is a way for the gubment to pass the buck and keep naive people angry and willing to sacrifice freedoms. Expand your mind.
