“As far as we can tell, California is prone to wildfires regardless of whether conditions are dry.... Historically, these drought conditions [over the past two years] are some of the mildest the state has seen in many years. Yet, wildfires still persist. In fact, wildfire activity in 2023 was greater than in 2024. Doesn’t that suggest that California needs to get its hands around management of its forest and vegetation today ... rather than focusing on spending massive amounts on non-solutions to climate change that won’t be felt until 75 years from now? Are we wrong?”
Energy analyst Doug Sheridan posted these thoughts on social media as California prepares for blackouts due to wildfire concerns.
