Loggers support Trump's claim that wildfires caused by 'poor forest management'

[eagle1462010]

A century of fire suppression is why California is in flames

Interesting subject.

Sweeping the floors of course is not a thing...but back burning is. Let's assume that;s what the Orange Idiot meant

Unfortunately it can only be done "out of the burning season" so that it doesn't take off on it's own and with climate change the burning season is getting longer and more severe in terms of temp and wind.

You would think the fucking idiots in California would have this whipped by now. .



After the country built them the Hoover damn and made lake Mead..



God are they stupid

.

Newsflash...the problem exists all across the west

Most of the west isn't as heavily populated as California.............The purpose is to protect people living there with management of the forest..........doesn't mean you have to necessarily do the entire forest........

Heavy population density makes the problem worse. But it's a problem even in low density population RED states

We have controlled burns where I live.............and a logging industry............not as good as the 90's but still decent..........Haven't seen whole towns burning down here.

When that happens............let me know........then we can compare.

State Corps of Engineers could ensure there are water cannons available near heavy population density areas.
