Environment LA Wildfires

[Chief]

The Mayor of LA and the Governor of "Wokeafornia" were caught napping and their policies exposed. I do have my suspicions though about how this all started in the middle of their Winter and how they all started in different locations surrounding the city? Los Angeles will never be the same again. Whatever the reason, something went horribly wrong in Tinseltown and the clean up and recovery will be immense? The question is "Will these people now displaced ever return"? It's a very sad event.

Horrible week for such a beautiful part of the world

I do hope to get back there sometime soon

A lot of friends organizing GoFundMe pages to rebuild homes right now. Thousands of homes lost, not including vans etc of people who lived throughout the affected areas. The devastation is incredible.

I do wonder how many people will rebuild and stay though. The Australian experience suggests people will move to areas less prone to fire as the emotional toll is just too hard to bear ever again.

Nutso dorks going hard on the "DEI made this happen!"

Includes Adam Carolla getting upset that he wasn't given a job as a firefighter because girls?



(Percentage of California firefighters who are women is 3.3%, which is a lower percentage than other states.)

Includes a meteorologist talking us through the Santa Ana winds, with animation.

Queue-jumping rich guy hounded off Twix for offering to pay "any amount" for private firefighters to save his home.

Some of those areas that did burn to the ground no one ever thought it would happen. It went that deep into suburbia.

There's a bit of uncharted territory in all this.
