Whenever I post the graph below, climate scam deniers come up with all sorts of excuses. Like : “they used to start the fires intentionally” or “firefighting techniques got better” or “people didn’t used to know how to do addition.”
Authorities almost always claim now that fire danger is high, even if it is lowest on record. I took this picture on July 3rd just west of Boulder. You probably couldn’t have started a fire if your life depended on it.
I’m just back from Los Alamos. Eight years ago, the largest fire in New Mexico history was started by a power line, and burned up a large area west of Los Alamos.
Scientists tell us that climate change is a critical contributor.
Many people I knew in Los Alamos were certain it was the worst thing that ever happened, and the mountain would never recover.
This is what the 2011 burn area looked like yesterday.
I took these pictures there in May.
If the “scientists” quoted by the press and at the US Park Service did any actual research, they would have known that drought in New Mexico is cyclical, and that the recent drought was nothing unusual.
And down 90% from pre-industrial times. Unfortunate that Department of the Interior scientists don’t bother to consult their own research, and that I have to spend 30 seconds doing it for them.
Wisconsin has had 334 days since 1895 over 100 degrees, 93% of which occurred with CO2 below 350 PPM. On this date in 1936, it was 113 degrees at Stanley, Wisconsin. The only years when Wisconsin reached 110 degrees were 1901 and 1936. There have been no 100 degree days in Wisconsin for seven years.
China’s solar industry had been dependent on the US Government transferring US taxpayer money to China via solar panel subsidies, but apparently that isn’t working any more.
