Our daughter works for a social service agency in Northern California. Every few days at her work, the agency gets a list by county of the fires currently burning, the containment, and whether the agency’s clients are affected.
Here’s an example for Siskiyou County, from Sept. 4. Five fires were burning in Siskiyou. This was one:
“Dillon Fire, 9,374 acres, 21% contained. Protection on the eastern side of the fire improved over night. This fire is still a risk as it has been growing into nearby drainages and growing in a western direction.”
Siskiyou was not the only county with a fire. Trinity had three, Butte had one, Tehama one, and Shasta one. There were ten other fires but they were either under an acre or posed no threat.
In the meantime, Trump and Trump voters who put him in office are doing their best to stop alternative energy sources and even get rid of existing windmills and solar power generators. The latest report from the administration says that global warming is not a real threat to our future.
I read in an article that Earth was in danger of becoming like Venus.
ReplyDeleteI think that atmosphere is quite a bit different.
