    And every year, we still have wildfires. Because they’re wild. And we can’t control them no matter what we try.https://twitter.com/angeles_nf/status/920351278462484480 …

    #WilsonFire Every year, Angeles reduces fuels throughout the forest through prescribed burns, burning piles of brush, or brush clearance.

        I love the San Gabriels and the Angeles forest. But I don’t love the backwards fire suppression policies we’ve implemented there.

        People act like Mt. Wilson’s never been on fire before but ask indigenous peoples: it’s been smoldering way before it was named Mt. Wilson.

        The Los Angeles Times chronicled how Mt. Wilson burned in 1896. The wildfire started July 10 and ended in late October 20 that year.

        The next wildfire on Mt. Wilson was in 1896. It started July 30 and ended October 23. It burned that entire time. That’s natural here.

        There are dozens, if not hundreds, of Angeles Crest-area wildfires chronicled through early 1900s. Some of the fires lasted into December.

        But as white folks started building housing in the area, which is essentially a naturally-burning carpet bomb, we started suppressing fires.

        The entire area is chaparral, vegetation that has evolved to germinate with fire. In short, fire means survival for indigenous plants.

        For 100 years, local/state/federal policies try to prevent wildfires. Which makes as much sense as preventing earthquakes. You can’t do it.

        You can cut back chaparral. You can put out small fires. You can pray. And you’ll maybe avoid a big fire for 9 years. Watch out on year 10.

        Chaparral, also known as brush, smells wonderful! That’s because it’s full of oil. That oil attracts fire. Because that fire means survival.

        You can try and suppress that big fire all you want. But it’s inevitable. It *will* burn. All you’re doing is wasting valuable resources.

        And, because climate change is real, people who don’t understand LA ecology automatically blame it for this Mt. Wilson fire in October...

        Except it’s highly unlikely that it’s climate change that’s causing this fire. Try understanding LA and/or listen to indigenous folks.

        We’ve had wildfires here from July-December for hundreds of years. So I want to understand what you mean when you say they’re worse now.
