Instead of snark I'd suggest doing some research. The science on this has been solid for about 50 years now. The political will is the problem.

- RC_ITR 5y agoYou think controlled burns during fire season are a good idea? I agree with you that controlled burns are good, but I'm saying a 'controlled burn' is impossible from Aug-rainfall. And sure, letting the entire Sierra burn is one solution, but we have the technology to do controlled burns when appropriate and not let wildfires run unfettered. Those are not mutually exclusive. Hence the 'critical thinking' snark. The answer to stopping massive wildfires is not to stop fighting them whole cloth, because, surprise California's equilibrium burn pre-contact was probably 4m acres/year anyway!
