    More than 20,000 wildland firefighters are battling some 100 large wildfires in the U.S. West. Their goal is “containment,” but estimated containment dates for some wildfires now raging aren’t until October or November. Why so long?http://apne.ws/e3RAz2u

        Newsome literally shot the entire state in the foot by eliminating “fire camps” where young low level offenders could become firefighters and get a better life. That’s a good reason why- not enough firefighters…

        Inmate fire crews were eliminated because of COVID, not because of Newsom.

        That article is a start. But describing what containment actually MEANS and how it’s accomplished would be helpful. See @BigWhiteFireDog lengthy description from a few days ago. I don’t have the patience.

        The solution is simple. Stop building pre-fab Tinderboxes out in the dry woods. It’s a Coin-Toss from there, whether become a source of, or consumed by wildfire.

        Why are we not using weather changing technology in these areas during wildfire season? Dubai is using it to regulate the humidity.
