Typical case of political activism masquerading as fact based reporting. It exemplifies TE slide from a respectable magazine into fake-news reporting. Sad.
Please stop the misleading fire stories: The US is smouldering less, not more 2018 will likely see burnt area one-sixth of the US record https://www.facebook.com/bjornlomborg/photos/a.221758208967.168468.146605843967/10157044699208968/?type=3&theater …pic.twitter.com/BSVAQaejfS

I respect you and your work, but I think it is your tweet that may be misleading. Something appears to have caused a sharp decrease in wildfires since the New Deal (maybe more investment/improved forest management?) and since then upward trajectory seems pretty clear.

Apparently WW2 had a significant impact on firefighting techniques & technology esp. planes. No slurry bombers before the 1940s. Can't imagine it makes much sense to compare figures from totally different firefighting tech eras. https://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2013/08/130828-military--wildfire-fighting-technologies-rim-fire-yosemite/ …

The strong decrease starting in ~1920s was due to a strong decrease in unprotected land and a strong increase in the resources use to fight fires. Still a wonderful example of the Pielke-Lomborg half truth. http://rabett.blogspot.com/2017/12/fire-fire-burning-bright-how-many-acres.html …

Yep, a cogent and plausible exposition, thanks
. Pielke-esque indeed. They're good aren't they?

In the discussion on why old media are doing badly, that many reputable papers are now full of what journalists wished was true rather than what is true might be the explanation. I now find FT and economist make me less smart rather than more - so don't buy them

You forgot something important, did you not? If you read in the very top, the data from before 1983 is inaccurate! You are trying to manipulate people and put your self in the center. Some mig classify that as “Fake news”pic.twitter.com/joKOtTd3lj

Serious question - do this summer’s heat records not make you slightly question your whole approach to whether climate change is bad and worth addressing?

Lay it all out: everything we need to do to change anything climate related across the globe. With costs and timetables. Go.
