Will D.C. Politicians Finally Put W. Coast Forest Management Ahead Of Activism?

More than 61 million residents up and down the East Coast got a rude education this week about the experience of their neighbors in the American West who choke on wildfire smoke every summer.

Western infernos have become so out of control in recent years that the California insurance industry is going up in flames along with Americans’ homes and livelihoods. [emphasis, links added]


While the Beltway press is eager to blame climate change, the primary culprit is negligent land management.

Maybe the wildfire smoke that canceled classes and baseball games in the nation’s capital will now wake up Washington lawmakers to the annual haze that blocks out the summer sun in the American West.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
