OP is about half million acres of Alaskan wilderness wildfires.

1. As the ex-gov of Alaska said: drill, baby, drill.

And as the guy who beat her team, just because they were so irresponsible, has done: frack, baby, frack.

2. Also huge fires in Siberia. From April 2015.

Climate change is real in right-wing-land. Maybe this will finally mean we get to do something about it.

7. Where is Inhofe's snowball when we need it?

Joking of course. I wonder what Inhofe thinks about this. He probably will say it is just part of God's plan.

Makes me sick. I have grandchildren. All those trees that took many years to grow. It is very sad.

8. Natural cycle.

Of course.

Then some long rant about how fires make stronger ecosystems or some nonsense.

**** science! What does it know?

6. I am so sorry for everyone suffering from this.
 
The hard-headness of the deniers is unfathomable. It's not as though this doesn't affect them, their kids and their grandkids as much as it affects us and our loved ones.

Please stay safe.

This is how the right will come to accept global warming. They never believe anything until it hits home and in this case it appears it's burning home.

21. Yes, and then will come the "response", feeble and halting and oh-so-late . . .

If anyone would like a preview of what it will look like, I suggest a glance through political and public responses across the EU as to how to handle Greece.

You know, rational, sensible and well-thought-out, though on a far larger scale and over a much longer period of time.

wut?

Do the DUmmies live in mud huts and eat raw food?....No?.... then they are part of the problem.....if there is a problem,

DUmmies demand that government give them a higher standard of living all the while condemning those that work for a higher standard.

Well, more specifically, from January, 1981 onward, IYKWIM. With an accellerant event in January, 2001.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

it has been National Park Service policy since 1968 to let lightning fires burn unless human life or property will be endangered. In our lower elevation sequoia-mixed conifer forests, however, a considerable fire hazard has built up because of the exclusion of natural fire during the past half century. Hence a program of prescribed burning has been adopted as the technique for restoring fire to this ecosystem. In order to effectively carry out this management objective,

Quote
What then does fire do in the giant sequoia-mixed conifer forest? Seven functions of fire seem particularly significant. Fire in this forest (1) prepares a seedbed; (2) cycles nutrients; (3) sets back succession in certain relatively small areas; (4) provides conditions which favor wildlife; (5) provides a mosaic of age classes and vegetation types; (6) reduces numbers of trees susceptible to attack by insects and disease; and (7) reduces fire hazards.

Prescribed Fire
 

Did you know fire can be good for people and the land? After many years of fire exclusion, an ecosystem that needs periodic fire becomes unhealthy. Trees are stressed by overcrowding; fire-dependent species disappear; and flammable fuels build up and become hazardous. The right fire at the right place at the right time:

 :banghead:

I think the DUmmie has a point.  We should stop all new housing development of any kind -- like Seattle.  Then try to find an apartment, much less a home or condo.

The DUmmies would have to sublet a refrigerator box under the freeway.

Of course, with no jobs, they would not be able to afford even that.

Since the so-called 'Global warming deniers' (Or to be more flexible in case the warming doesn't pan out, 'Global climate change deniers') are completely out of power with the Oministration and its EPA firmly in the hands of the overzealous fanatic affirmers of whatever-the-Hell-the-flavor-of-the-week-is, it's hard to see how it could possibly be the fault of the deniers.
