Here in South Africa too it's standard practise by farmers to prevent wildfires, we say they're "burning firebreaks". Surprised some people don't know about this, thought it was common knowledge.
Loggers in Northern California have been saying this forever. The gov used to do it when I was a kid. (The forestry service and Cal fire) this isn't at all new. However they lessened this practice about 20+- years ago cause "environmental concerns" and budget cuts.
Note: I'm not a Trump supporter. But last year in 2020, when California was burning down _(and the air in our cities were worse than places like Delhi at its worst)_ we all laughed at him when he suggested trimming the underbrush. Which is exactly what's being done right now.
It would have been incredibly helpful if he'd stated his desire for CalFire to invest more money in prescribed burns to clear out sources of fuel. Instead he suggested we rake the forest. He identified a real problem and followed it up with a worthless suggestion.
I live in Florida and we control burn all the time here. Even though we have water in our state, that doesn’t mean we don’t have hot summers that get up to 104 degrees. It’s also very dry between December and may. It’s very very important to control burn and I’m surprised that California the most liberal state is having a problem with fires because they aren’t control burning
@@muhamedjones122 I'm 20 miles from the Dixie fire and that's why I don't mind my tax money going to their training and education, and whatever else they need, those guys are working in some pretty spooky conditions
Thank you, we're going to be fine though because we got the Rockinest fire Crews on the planet👍 shout out to our fire heroes, you guys are knockin' it dead!!!
Plenty of safe places to live in CA. But the government will never tell rich people they shouldn't live in ridiculously dangerous areas and the rich people can hire private firefighters. It's not that dissimilar from the federal government paying to rebuild houses in flood/hurricane zones multiples times but being unwilling to stop people from living in areas in constant risk.
Greetings Pastor, I'm 20 miles from the Dixie fire, please pray for our Fire Heroes, we pray for them all the time and we love them to death, and there are thousands of them up in here now , they're fighting an extremely aggressive fire and they deserve to be prayed for as much as possible
@Emma Cott theyre not going to properly not after that humiliation being treated like everything is a competition idk how they will take this. if they dont show the proper steps i completely understand.
They should honestly slot out sections of areas going to be burned anyway and sell it to them gender reveal firebomb party people. If it's gonna burn anyway, might as well make some money.
I wanna meet the people burning the world with overusing our natural resource! Keep in mind we’re all together, one world and lets save it for the next generation 🌎🌏🌍
🌎IF we really needed to save the planet 🌎, THEY top government officials & CEO/Directors of green companies would AVOID travel by air ✈️🚗, 🛤️🚝🚅🚆, USE Virtual meetings. Also Biden, Unions, Green companies, Environmental groups should telecommute/work from home thereby decreasing vehicle transportation, avoid idle vehicles on the road in hours traffic.
I heard of the idea of prescribed fire while studying at school, never have seen anybody do it in real life though. I guess, it's a whole another range of emotions if it's to be done near your house.
Yep, you kind of have to trust somebody else on it. We have excellent fire crews out here, they're educated and experienced and they know what they're doing
UK. here... heath-land and moorland used to be burned regularly to promote new growth. But, the anti-shooting brigade are up in arms(S) about it, land-owners need to make a living from their investment. Shooting-parties bring in a lot of money for local economies.
It's not about people burning it. It's about letting the natural wildfire process take place. That's what the problem is. We longer allow that to happen.
Yep that's why western bigotry towards traditional science and medicine simply because it's not done by white people yet is something that needs to be called out as harmful. Imagine what the world could learn if we removed these barriers holding progress back!
i understand the risks, but i think people should be reliable for their decision.... its also very important to hold responsibility, it makes you think twice or three times and people need to learn how to own their actions...
Wasn’t it President Trump who reminded Governor Newsom last year, very humbly in fact, that forest management was possibly one problem_. I saw the video and heard his tone of voice so don{t say it wasn’t he.
It’s funny because California has been doing this less and less not helping the forest. They need to recruit more working bodies in effort to combat this or it will come back bigger and badder.
If nothing catches on fire what will firefighters do? If no one commits crime what will police do? There's more money in making the problem worse than better.
Burn boss must be one of the coolest job titles out there. Plus, you're helping safe lives and homes. Kuddos to the people who choose to do this job. You're under appreciated and should be rewarded more for your efforts.
Drop in the bucket. I remember when California was different, in the 60s and '70s. Personally, I hope all these million dollar houses get burned up. It seems that all the preventative work is being spent around the expensive houses anyway.
preventing large uncontrollable fires is great but it also adds to climate change. more smoke in the atmosphere ripping holes in the ozone and melting ice caps everywhere. the droughts are caused by heat that is trapped due to climate change and climate change is caused but all the smoke and fumes from animals and fires. this is all terrible
Its policy being dictated by people who have no idea what they're voting for. I remember when they voted to end selling mountain lion tags. Now rangers go out and shoot them and throw the carcasses away, instead of making money and having the carcasses taken away, the taxpayers are now paying the government to do it.
How could we change the situation in California? Fighting fires is very very dangerous! Thx for the information!👀☝️ Where the citizens will go? Does insurance cover losses associated with this type of fire thx
Instead of burning & polluting the air, why don't they bring in herds of sheep to eat the grass? Offer it to the smaller farms first & then the bigger ones. It makes more sense & the neighborhood ❤ watching the sheep & goats 🐐
How to deal with it? Find a way for the most *realistic* Non-Flammable artificial trees & plant them in the most likely areas for this. could be interesting.
The postponement of the Olympics and the new crown virus disrupted the pace of American athletes taking doping, so this year's track and field medals in the United States were not satisfactory.
Native Americans knew when and how to burn it !!!
Now that is so true
Here in South Africa too it's standard practise by farmers to prevent wildfires, we say they're "burning firebreaks". Surprised some people don't know about this, thought it was common knowledge.
And now Americans think they invented it despite it happening way before the US or even Mexico
Going to be going into type 1 wildland firefighting next year... currently on the fitness grind
Thank you for your service and good luck!

@@CIARUNSITEwell trump wasn’t a fire specialist he was a leader that had to put light on the matter. And talking about is the best way.
Best time is during spring time when it's still wet but still dry. It's a common practise still in Cree territory
Who would dislike this? what is there to dislike?! Smh….ppl these days.
Ignorant people who have never been up close and personal. That will change your attitude

Indigenous people have been doing prescribed burns for centuries. How did forests manage fires before them?
My condolences to California

Not to digress but when I see this style of video I can’t help but think of the influence Vice had on the style of reporting today.
Fair point! Agree
God Bless all who serve this great country!🙏❤️🙌✝️
CalFire is probably the worst agency to show and depict fire management across the west.
There were two burns in this video. Calfire was only involved in one of them and was not the lead agency in the other.
That is actually a fact
Interesting!!! Hello everyone, have a great afternoon. Blessings
You too and Thx!

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Let's blame "climate change" again..... What a joke. All climate's change. It's called history.
This is what happens when you stop properly managing the forests. They're way too thick nowadays, when they light they burn hot and fast.
Wow, so the indigenous people were forbidden to practice their culture in yet another tragic way.
@Emma Cott yes of course it was! So glad to hear that their knowledge is finally being requested and hopefully respected.
@Emma Cott theyre not going to properly not after that humiliation being treated like everything is a competition idk how they will take this. if they dont show the proper steps i completely understand.
They are scared people might feel sketched out? How about saving the state?
California: I used the fire to destroy the fire.
Just ban those pointless and moronic gender reveal parties
Isn't that Just the stupidest thing you ever saw? Stupid like you write home about
I think you mean baby genital announcement parties, yep they're dangerous and creepy AF.
You used to burn the mast near forests for the health of the forest itself. It takes away the fuel and creates healthy soils awhile afterwards.
So raking the forest doesn't work? hmm
if you see hotels and urban cities being built on these newly "burned" forests then someone must have planned it all .)
You gotta fight fire with fire
Yep that's where the expression came from.
They should honestly slot out sections of areas going to be burned anyway and sell it to them gender reveal firebomb party people. If it's gonna burn anyway, might as well make some money.
Thanks to Sarah Gibson and team !
Hi beautiful ✋

This takes more time than becoming a police officer.
The USA should start prioritizing first responder jobs.
Being a burn boss. This is a huge risk, letting civilians loose with torches.
i understand the risks, but i think people should be reliable for their decision.... its also very important to hold responsibility, it makes you think twice or three times and people need to learn how to own their actions...
are trees being planted after the fires are finished?
no they grow rather fast. within a year or 2
Going to be going into type 1 wildland firefighting next year... currently on the fitness grind 👍👍👍
They walked still farther and the girl said, "Is it true that long ago firemen put fires out instead of going to start them?"
4:50 what does he mean? Can't he just get any insurance and be covered for the job? What has it to do with the job?

Newsom and Cal fire for dam removal on Klamath River. Three reservoirs will be gone forever.

How to fight fire..
Cali: With more FIRE!
Pls do not close your nuke plants
I'm sure they are being highly rewarded 💸💸💸
How so? If you're thinking money you are mistaken.
It’s funny because California has been doing this less and less not helping the forest. They need to recruit more working bodies in effort to combat this or it will come back bigger and badder.
i was watching this and heard a fire truck
America learns from its own mistakes and experiences, others don't count.
"I used the fire to destroy the fire"
Amazônia, DiCaprio ?

Crimes and fires in California don't need any help... they happen on their own.

ALL the native tribes would do this… it’s about time the right people are being woken up about it.

This is the difference between seasonal fire and what's been happening in the Amazon with mass destruction of vegetation.
Better stay there need experience
Peiple are living near forest....dont blame nature
this is the “raking & cleaning” of the forest that you laughed at Donald Trump about… packaged differently you all are eating it up now!
And ask for mercy from federal gov acted as if they did not corrupt the fund and they are not a evil city next to sin city.
You have to admit, Trump has a way of getting things done one way or the other
@@chrisward4576 I love trump
To much overgrowth is a result of our obsession with saving every single tree.

That would make it worse as trees cool down areas and are integral to soil quality
