Wildfires and global warming

So the AP—John Flesher—reports that the Trump administration has treated 6,736 square miles of Federal forest land—about half what Trump sought. Let’s compare that to the Obama Administration which developed a fire management strategy and increased land treatments to as much as 10,469 square miles in 2009.

I’ll wait patiently for mrgybe to apologize for the nonsense he posted.

Apparently Newsom doesn't think my opinions are nonsense.

It’s still cherry blossom time, not yet cherry picking time. Nobody disagrees that we need to spend more managing forests—I have a colleague who wrote the book. The discussion on the thread that was just ignored was:

—global warming caused by burning fossil fuels has increased the need for forest management—and the cost;

—the Federal government owns the vast bulk of forest land in California, yet neither Trump nor the GOP increased funding for managing that land.

Sage? Spin.
