    Pickle, there is no answer to the question of how do you link climate change to wildfires. Fact of the matter is that fires are caused by highly charged electrons produced by lightning or electrical lines. Else some dumbass flick his/her cigarette out the window or some camper doesn't properly extinguish a camp fire.

    I understand that we have fires in fl all the time same when I lived in cali but climate change be8ng responsible is a bit of a reach something started the fire

    Those giant GUM trees go up like Roman Candles!

    In CA the Redwoods don't burn at all! But manzanita and chapparal are like torches!

    If you look at climate records in the last 150 years, it has gotten hotter! I can post them if you want.

    The only debate is; if it is man made or not.

    Do you have a link?

    If so, please post it.

    If not, please stop spreading irresponsible rumors.
    I posted a thread about it. Check it out.

    The question stands.

    Sounds great. None of which has anything to do with climate change.
