The lower article says “largest fire in state’s history” but the Holy Fire was only 22,000 acres. Carr fire up in NorCal is over 100,000 acres largers

2018-08-14 14:53:10 UTC  

Just saying, lol

2018-08-14 15:00:24 UTC  

Though the fire was intentional, California is going through longer and tougher droughts which is a direct consequence of climate change.

2018-08-14 15:01:02 UTC  

Such droughts make it easier for fires to propagate and become uncontrollable

2018-08-14 15:01:49 UTC  

And obviously it becomes harder to put them out as water reserves in lakes are dangerously low

IF they managed the land they could stop it spreading so fast but

MUH NATURUH

if only there were this science called land management that allowed for say the process of relocating water and storing it or worse case artificially deselenating it and putting it back into the system. But they would rather spend money virtue signaling and 40k a pop on the homeless that probably see less then 10 dollars from that 40 thousand.

Priorities my dude

"The threat to the UK from terrorism remains severe. I would urge the public to remain vigilant - but also to come together and carry on as normal, just as they did after the sickening attacks in Manchester and London last year." 🤔

2018-08-14 15:56:25 UTC  

Also: I don't think that's how heat/light works. lol

2018-08-14 15:57:35 UTC  

Light just doesn't absorb off of non-black surfaces easier.

2018-08-14 15:57:42 UTC  

The problem is it becomes diffused.

2018-08-14 15:57:56 UTC  

It doesn't mean it just takes the energy out of the equation, it just spreads it elsewhere.

2018-08-14 15:58:09 UTC  

Rather than storing that heat inside of a black surface, and then radiating.

2018-08-14 15:58:57 UTC  

Shhh. They just need to fill out their spending for the year. It's a virtue signal that also allows them to hit their baseline budgeting

2018-08-14 15:59:13 UTC  

This makes little sense in the terms of physics.

2018-08-14 15:59:23 UTC  

It's just spreading the light elsewhere.

2018-08-14 15:59:33 UTC  

Likely inside of buildings.

2018-08-14 15:59:47 UTC  

Which means higher AC costs.

2018-08-14 16:00:08 UTC  

Physics schmysics. LOOK AT HOW GOOD THEY ARE AT MAKING THE EFFORT!!!!

2018-08-14 16:00:21 UTC  

Also that paint I believe is made of a rubberized compound.

2018-08-14 16:00:30 UTC  

Which means it's a byproduct of oil.

2018-08-14 16:00:33 UTC  

Just for extra irony.

2018-08-14 16:00:53 UTC  

I believe it's an amalgamation of rubber and plastics.

2018-08-14 16:01:38 UTC  

Which means it also "contains materials known to the state of California to cause birth defects and certain forms of cancer"

2018-08-14 16:01:56 UTC  

Last I thought it wasn't made of carcinogenic compounds.

2018-08-14 16:02:08 UTC  

Plastic and rubber aren't explicitly made of carcinogenics.

2018-08-14 16:02:16 UTC  

Oh, they claim anything is carcinogenic

2018-08-14 16:02:41 UTC  

They have those signs up everywhere in California

2018-08-14 16:03:22 UTC  

I mean, cellphones likely have more methods of causing cancer than most of those compounds.

2018-08-14 16:03:29 UTC  

Just because of radiation.

2018-08-14 16:03:46 UTC  

Yep

2018-08-14 16:04:13 UTC  

I'll radiate you

2018-08-14 16:04:38 UTC  

And yet, there are people in California claiming their financial problems are because of the Federal Government and want to secede from the union

2018-08-14 16:04:40 UTC  

Oh my.

2018-08-14 16:04:55 UTC  

I mean.

2018-08-14 16:05:05 UTC  

Daddy not giving you money is not daddy's fault.

2018-08-14 16:05:16 UTC  

And leaving just means permanently being without daddy's money.

2018-08-14 16:05:22 UTC  

They say they give daddy all their money

2018-08-14 16:05:38 UTC  

uh no.
