President trump appeared to ignore the questions about Climate Change and instead deflected some of the blame to california, when it comes to the deli wildfires that are burning across the state. It is possible that it is also Forest Management and Climate Change. I think a lot of things are possible. The president says Forest Management is key to prevent wildfires devastation. At a briefing earlier, into the president Climate Change is a factor that cannot be ignored.

Bill stewart says no amount of force management would prevent the kinds of fires we have seen lately. The wind driven fires were having now, nothing will slow those down. When you get high, 30 mile an hour consisted wind, it does not matter what you did. Its going to burn. He says neglected forests can add to the problem, how closely the trees are spaced and how much debris is beneath them determines the fire danger and dr. Stewart says private Timber Companies are doing a much better job of managing that. They spend a few hundred dollars an acre, reducing the fuels, small trees, broken branches, the litter, when they are doing their timber harvesting. That is compared to 7000 per acre when government tries to do it, with its myriad of bureaucratic processes and redtape. And despite being criticized for President Trump for poor Forest Management, gov. Newson requested more funding today quickly pointing out that it is federal land in the state that posed the biggest problem. St ndcaiasowe weight in the really do need that support. He says there will never be enough money to manage forests as it is currently being done. It will require california to soft and its rules and change his attitude about logging.
