Also most of the fires in California are not because of climate change but rather poor forest management. The brush that needs to be control burned but it never is due to low funding because unlike the eastern forests, the western forests are federal land.
Bingo, and the fact they WANt this stuff to happen to drive people out if these desirable areas.
Trees survived. All homes burnt to ground
Live trees have much higher water content than lumbers
The trees were torched all the way up
About 90% of the trees up there did NOT survive. They're dead and in the process of being cut down. The amount of dead, dry pines is a very serious hazard right now. Still standing does NOT mean survived. And no, not all structures burnt. Just most of them.
Most of all trees 🌲 burned or are functionally dead.
Perhaps the sate should stop selling public land to developers for a quick buck.
If they go back to controlled burns this wouldn't have happened
sound like waste of money when people are doing gender reveal parties.
So....make a concrete shell home and use Space Shuttle Ceramic tile siding for thermal barrier.
Just concrete and steel is plenty and cost effective.... never need to replace a steel roof.
the problem is how these forests were clear cut logged and replanted without diversity and especially without the correct amount of mycellium/mushrooms to help rot and decay the underbrush. without the mushrooms the forest floor is tinder. when you clear cut you kill all the mycellium not just the trees, the mushrooms need SHADE and moisture, they wont return to the location if its dry and or sunny. we have to stop clear cutting forests immediately and return to horse logging or start drone logging.
yeah almost all of the b-roll footage showing the trees in the area show almost nothing but 1 type of tree. whats terrible is that monoculture like this is typical of american reforestation projects up until very recently. it also makes me wonder if those trees are even native to the region, because in many places where wildfires are 'natural', the native trees can survive the fires because they evolved with them, to the point that new trees wont grow unless the fires 'activate' the seeds
$740 billion a year on endless wars and you’re telling me we can’t afford to send families $2,000 a month to pull them through?
I don’t want to hear it.
Rent is due, food bank lines are around the block & COVID cases are spiking.
We have to take care of each other.
$1 Trillion a year*
Why not create your green belt on the existing outskirts
Too bad the state forestry department got cannibalized by firefighting. Now the parks dept tries to do forestry’s job. Shame
The whole of America is bankrupt. That’s the issue.
1) yes climate change is important but it’s misleading to leave out other factors like forestry (mis)management
2) stop saying “literally” everything. I literally this, we literally that, it’s literally blah blah. No. You don’t actually mean LITERALLY. You mean figuratively, metaphorically.
We should use the power of the titans
whoa. the comments section was a surprise. Not that people would be saying crazy stuff, but the sort of crazy stuff. The internet is wild.
It's funny that when houses are burnt down we talk about getting fire extinguishers and not so much about playing with gas and match sticks 🤔
They love burning leaf piles lmao
The fires were started by old power lines though, PG&E doesn't replace them after 80 years, you can probably go see for yourself, take a drive on State Route 70 and you will see the ancient transmission lines.
To help this land become Green space someday. I’m going to sell it for United States Currency. Makes sense.
Build your homes from brick and steel... does no one have a brain.
even if the exterior and structure of your house is inflammable, the exterior can get hot enough to ignite everything inside. It'll probably prevent your home from anything short of being completely engulfed in flame.
Review building codes and institute mandatory items that will mitigate the risk to home loss by the insurers as a prerequisite to reinsurance on the home.
The price of the homes will increase in build cost that insurance may not cover, forcing some of those people to move away - reducing the population of homes to be lost again from wildfire.
It has also had a major impact on the surrounding communities of Butte County,
Idk, like, don't build suburbs?
Save the world
Just need to educate and living with nature in harmony 😊🐍🐒🦁🐘🏞️🦢🐑🌾🌳🌌🌄
These added costs must be barred by the people who wish to live in these dangerous places, not the anonymous public.
Dan is Leslie Knope👌👏👍
California... paradise... hahahahaha
Take my like
0:23 Brush fires??
I know. lol . I think he's referencing 'Bush' but said brush. Australian hardwood eucalyptus forest fires are intense.
Australia’s “brush” fires 🤣 It’s BUSH fires.
Brush/ bush theyre the same thing dingus.
@@davidthomas6949 they aren’t. In Australia they are called bush fires. In America, we never refer to hurricanes as cyclones and vice versa. Have respect, the whole world does not revolve around ignorant America.
on top of forests that look like real forests; people over there could consider better building materials... but those are alien ideas over there
And this is possible with kids:-)
Thank' s for your vidéos!

I Didn't expect that! I should add this in my vids.
Saving Paradise and or California from fires or mismanagement is not through these infantile measures but eliminating the Democratic from government
How about aluminum from jet trails...
Oh...sillly me n .my aluminum hat.
How do ALL of those homes burn, yet the trees surrounding them don't?
If you dont think these fires were weaponized and purposeful, idk what to do for you.
Trust me they very much did. Burnt, dead trees are still a major hazard there and they're in the process of being chopped down. Still standing does not mean they didn't burn.
@@itsaWRAAAP Yeah thats the stupidest answer Ive literally ever hear. Yes tree's water tension can magically keep them from bursting into flames with everything around it, and oh the LEAVES REMAIN GREEN!!!! YESSSSSSSSS. Foh with your stupidity. The govt is puporsely setting, and steering these fires. its 2021 ffs, the technology has existed for DECADES. WAKE UP. UGH i could pull my hair out you normies are so ignorant it hurts!!!!!!!!!
Ya, I escaped the camp fire. Trees surrounding me in every direction were on fire. Every video on UA-cam is showing the trees burning like candles. If anyone reads David Thomas’s Comment- look up the videos yourself and give him a comment. It looks like he needs some attention or love.
God's will,
He hates California,
Arizona beachfront property will be the new fire break from democrats,,, 😂👍
