Dimwittia Dana Griswold Criswell, Obama's FEMA director, blames Global Warming for the fires of Mordor of so cal.
FTA:
Host Jake Tapper said, "You just touched on something we’re hearing from a lot of survivors of these fires, which is this idea that this is just the new world we’re living in due to the climate crisis extreme heat, prolonged, prolonged droughts, hurricane force, Santa Ana winds, all of that created the tinderbox fueling this catastrophe. Does this scale of devastation in Los Angeles indicate that we as a country, are just simply not prepared for the realities of the climate crisis?”
Criswell said, "Well, I think what we have to do is look at what these new weather events are bringing, the severity that they’re bringing, and think about what the future risk is going to continue to be. And as we have these tragedies, we also need to make sure that we’re taking this as an opportunity to rebuild these communities in a way that’s going to make them more resilient against these types of disasters. I talked about this all last year. FEMA had a year of resilience and trying to get people to understand what is it we do to protect these communities and reduce the impact. There are things that we can do, and those are the steps we’re going to have to take to make sure that they don’t have as much impact as we’re seeing right now from these fires.”
Only a few niggling problems with this claim. First, California has just gotten past a period of TOO MUCH RAIN which actually had reservoirs over-full. Since 2022 the state has been above average on rainfall. So how is that "climate change" related?
And the summer of 2023 was the coolest summer they've had for over a decade. That's the New York Times making this claim, not Breitbart. Temperatures fell all over the state.
Last year was the quietest spring in years in California, I might add.
So how is "climate change" responsible for the fires? As of December of last year California's precipittation was above average so one cannot blame this on lack of rain. Certainly one cannot blame empty fire hydrants on climate change.
But of course our government overlords, never willingt to let a good crisis go to waste, are now proclaiming 2024 the hottest year on record since record keeping began in a lame attempt to keep their climate change grift alive.
They arrive at that by downplaying previous temperature data from hot periods like the 1930's via "data smoothing" and other statistical tricks. But it's a lie and they know it.
Not sure where it was so hot. certainly not in the Midwest where we had perhaps one or two days above 100* all summer and winter temperatures were not exactly sultry.
NASa and NOAA rely on people not knowing what it is doing elsewhere then they fib about it.
At any rate there is no way at all to justify claims that it was global warming that caused the California fires and not dreadful public policy. From refusing to remove deadwood from forests to not storing enough water to shutting off electricity needed to run pumps to DEI hiring in Las Angeles fire deparment to giving it's fire equipment to Ukraine and cutting the LAFD's budget, everything they have done worked together to cause this disaster. It had nothing to do with "climate change".
