The left's weather hysteria
Most years we hear a lot about wildfires in California. Instead of admitting they are cyclical and natural and that a significant number of them are caused because underbrush isn't cleared, we are told that they are getting worse and are caused by humans and our abuse of natural resources.
From the following Wall Street Journal article: 362,403 acres burned this year in California versus 2.6 million in 2021 and a 2.2 million average the last five years.
My guess is most people won't see that good news because it doesn't scare people into submission to the radical green agenda to destroy America. They wouldn't willingly give up their gas-powered vehicles and natural gas-heated homes if they were told that the climate is and has always changed cyclically and naturally.
If the story came out, Governor Newsom would probably take credit for the massive reduction. As the WSJ writes:
One of the slowest wildfire seasons in years has come to an end in the West thanks to well-timed rain and cooler temperatures, bringing a reprieve to a region hit by numerous destructive blazes over the past several years.
The break is giving firefighters an opportunity to focus on prevention efforts such as thinning forests that could lessen damage from wildfires in the future, according to officials.
This year was a very mild year for hurricanes, many fewer than predicted. Named storms only got to the letter "N". Of course, the public didn't get that good news. either. Instead, they were told the false information that the two significant hurricanes in Florida were made stronger by humans and our use of natural resources.
The Mississippi River is very dry this year and we are told that it is caused by us, but it is caused because storms were fewer this year. If the River were high, we would also falsely be told that it was caused by us. It is cyclical and natural. There are a lot of dry river beds throughout the U.S and World because the climate is and has always changed cyclically and naturally.
I bet the Northeast would be happy if they weren't getting record snow this week. Many times in the past, the radical leftists predicted snowless winters. Of course, most of the media just repeated those dire predictions, as they do all predictions with no questions asked.
...
The doom and gloom leftists have been serially wrong about the weather for decades.
The poles are still not ice-free and coastal cities are still not underwater. They constantly overrate man's ability to cause bad weather.
