Note that I'm not arguing that scientists in this paper are asserting that the current California drought is caused by climate change. I'm arguing that the paper seems to agree with the theory that the California drought could be exasperated by climate change.

California's history of drought goes back father than either the automobile or the industrial revolution.

"“We continue to run California as if the longest drought we are ever going to encounter is about seven years,” said Scott Stine, a professor of geography and environmental studies at Cal State East Bay. “We’re living in a dream world.”

"The longest droughts of the 20th century, what Californians think of as severe, occurred from 1987 to 1992 and from 1928 to 1934. Both, Stine said, are minor compared to the ancient droughts of 850 to 1090 and 1140 to 1320."

Stine, who has spent decades studying tree stumps in Mono Lake, Tenaya Lake, the Walker River and other parts of the Sierra Nevada, said that the past century has been among the wettest of the last 7,000 years.

Looking back, the long-term record also shows some staggeringly wet periods. The decades between the two medieval megadroughts, for example, delivered years of above-normal rainfall — the kind that would cause devastating floods today."

"Bill Patzert, a research scientist and oceanographer at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, says that the West is in a 20-year drought that began in 2000. He cites the fact that a phenomenon known as a “negative Pacific decadal oscillation” is underway — and that historically has been linked to extreme high-pressure ridges that block storms.

Such events, which cause pools of warm water in the North Pacific Ocean and cool water along the California coast, are not the result of global warming, Patzert said."

1. He lies almost constantly. One cannot trust anything that he says.

When is the last time we had a president who didn't lie constantly, or at least stretch the truth a bit? Obama was a liar, Bush was a liar, and Clinton was a liar, Reagan was a liar, etc, etc.

"

2. Trump is a Misogynist and a racist.

Salt.

"

3. He does not even try to be President for everyone. He only caters to his base.

That's because he's smart. There is no such thing as "everyone's president", when the country is this divided. There is no pleasing everybody. In politics, if you try to please everyone, you please nobody, and everyone hates your guts.

Unless you're Vladimir Putin with 80%+ approval rating. That's pleasing nearly everybody. I know the left hates his guts, but he's one of the most savvy leaders in the world.

In B4 "In Soviet Russia, scandal raises approval %".

"

4. He seems to only be concerned with himself. When decision making he doesn't seem to be in the least bit concerned with what is best for the country. He is only concerned with what would be best for him. For example, in policy and foreign relations this usually means that he is more concerned with what will play well with his base rather than what would be best for the country. Hence his most important advisers are people like Hannity.

His biggest blunder, foreign policy wise, IMO, was getting involved in Syria. He ultimately backed out though. I was worried there for a minute. Some other Republican would have gotten us into another war, another regime change operation. He ultimately made the correct decision by not seeking huge involvement in yet another pointless foreign war.

"

5. He is very dishonest with no moral base. It is known that he violates the emoluments clause of the constitution.

Proof?

"

It appears likely that he colluded with a foreign power to illegally impact the 2016 election. At the very least it is known that the Trump's campaign expressed excitement with the offer from Russia.

You talking about The Hag's emails? LMAO! No laws were broken, but there was a lot of salt over it.

They have ZERO case for impeachment. Period.

"

6. Trump's administration has had a huge number of scandals. His appointees wasting tax payer money, needlessly separating children from parents, etc. The swamp is not being drained, it's being fostered.

Democrats are the ultimate wasters of taxpayer money.

As far as draining the swamp goes, I kinda agree. He hasn't done enough, and I don't think he's done enough on the Southern Border, either.

My definition of draining the swamp would be to purge neoconservatives, and military industrial complex influence in government, and politics, and he's done neither. The military industrial complex definitely wanted a war in Syria, but didn't get one, so he's not exactly giving "the swamp" everything they want. One man, one president, isn't going to defeat the Deep State cronies. I think Trump realized this shortly after getting elected, that he was going to have to at least pretend to play ball, and cooperate with them a little.

Water content DGAF about 900-2000 degrees. Wet tree become fuel very quickly. You need highways wide areas of no trees to stop the burn. Back in the day smart Indians would carve out like 10-20 miles squares so it was limited radius but we are too stupid.

Only fire prevention California does is by accident with highways we build like 405/101/5 etc. otherwise it's reckless policy.

Fire does not give a fuck about houses. Does house not burn at 900-2000 degrees? Does it burn faster? Houses are fuel too. Fire don't a shit when ashes and debris can fly miles away. People like to build houses close to one another. Once one house catch fire it spread really fast. What fire break? They don't have one!!!!!!



Your trees are safe, your houses are not. Houses are flammable, let's not forget that.

Why don't people listen to experts? Their advice would be expensive and unpopular. I would have never guessed.

A billion upfront to listen to the experts. 16 Billion for not listening to them.

To tackle the intensity of fires, money was moved from fire prevention programs to fire suppression. How do you deal with lack of money? The effectiveness of many of these methods in reducing fire injuries and deaths is unknown...

Put more money into fighting fire and save lives, property and houses or put more money into fire prevention then watch the fire burns. What a dilemma.

Ordered 3 of these.

Russia sucks. Like Mexico with more nukes. But democrat's kiss way more ass of Russia than Trump. Like Clinton sold half our Uranainm mines to Russian and sailed it through DOE objections. Like been in bed with Russia since McCarthy. Basically they are projecting with Trump.

Twitch streamers like to say bad things about Trump without knowing that some people actually do like Trump and yes, it is off-putting.


(I know the title may have intended this to be a troll thread, but just wanted to point this out, if anyone reads this and cares.)

And some people hate him. Let's not pretend left inevitably mean Love and Peace. Nobody care about your feeling works both ways.

lol NO, Aim. Trump and Putin are joined at the hip.

Trump armed Ukrainians with Javelin missiles to take out Russians tanks which Obama refused to do, Trump bombed his ally assad which Obama refused to do. Trump kicked out 120 "dipolmats" aka spies. Trump also canceled short range nuke 40 yr old treaty because Russia is cheating like a mofo so we need then too.

I look at actions.. and trump is on russia.. despite what MSM says. Never believe them or anyone else with words. Look at actions to get clear view.
