Jerry Brown Blames ‘Those Who Deny’ Global Warming For Deadly Wildfires

California Gov. Jerry Brown said “those who deny” man-made global warming are “definitely contributing” to the deadly, devastating wildfires forcing thousands of residents out of their homes.

Brown made the comments during a Sunday press conference where he warned that global warming created a “new abnormal” for the state, including fueling deadly wildfires. The Democrat said better forest management was only a partial solution to the problem.

“Managing the forests in every way we can does not stop climate change, and those who deny that are definitely contributing to the tragedies that we’re now witnessing, and will continue to witness in the coming years,” Brown said.

Not happy with almost single handedly destroying what was once the greatest state in the union (up to and including changing forest management system that once prevented fire like the ones were experiencing at the behest of the environmentalists) do we now have to listen to this inept dunce moralizing from behind the locked gates of his estate?

Just GO AWAY Moonbeam.

This from the moron that has the states infrastructure and maintenance so backwards that running electricity to homes is setting the place ablaze.

Governor Asshat presumes that we are all to ignorant to know that the Santa Ana winds are not a recent phenomenon, that California is predominately desert, that human habitation has increased in high levels in areas that burned and recovered as a natural course of events, that there have always been very hot dry days in the state and that the increased risk of out of control fires has little to nothing to do with the Bogeyman of global warming and almost all to do with the Bogeyman of human habitation.

Now, since man isn't going to go away, it won't be long before homes in the devastated areas are rebuilt, man must be prepared to intelligently conserve the forest. And that means harvesting and removing a great deal of the dead trees and underbrush, removing the excess fuel. But unless Moonbeam and the Gaia worshipers have a way of turning off the Santa Ana winds there will always be the risk of widespread conflagration.

I would say ASSumes.

Yep. Gonna get hot. Yep. Wind's gonna blow. A spark will occur.

After that, the only things that matter are massive firefighting resources.

Before that, what matters is water storage, firebreaks, mowing, and elimination of ladder fuels.
With those things in place, it don't matter that it gets hot, that the wind blows, that the spark happens, because the fire that is going to come cannot mount a grand campaign.
