        This entire year was the hottest on record in Tucson, Arizona. A/C on in March, 89 degrees F on Thanksgiving and 90+ a few days later. Very bad winds tonight.

        Of course, Trump who abandoned the #ParisAgreement to address climate change which is causing more frequent and more extreme and extensive wild fires, is eager to sign a tax bill which will remove deductions for losses due to fire damage. #ImpeachTrump

        But Trump will say this isn't the time to talk about it. Just like he said it wasn't time to talk about gun control after the recent shootings.

        Yes, there is Climate Change. And Mother Nature is not pleased with California.

        That seems to be a fairly narrow minded approach to the fires.

        Co2 is the issue. SoCal decomed a nuclear power plant. This plant had no carbon footprint. May be a better place to take the discussion.

        Yep, now is not the time to talk about climate change! Like after a mass shooting not the time to talk of gun control. Thoughts / prayers!

        Once the science is in on how undersea volcanic activity drives the temperature fluctuation of the pacific oceans we can draw conclusions on what is more of an impact on the temperature of southern cal co2 or volcanic activity. Can not cover it in twitter.

        It's too soon to talk about climate control. Just send thoughts and prayers.

        Climate change is real, but for scale, these recent fires are relatively tame compared to the past. E.g., the Cedar Fire in 2003 destroyed 2,200+ homes and scorched 300,000 acres. 15-20 years ago, when these fires would occur, 100s to 1000s of homes would be destroyed at a time.
