Hawaiian Electric ignored wildfire danger, spent most money on renewables

Things grow and things burn and there will always be ignition sources.

The more fires people put out, the fewer and the bigger the fires we'll have.

Cities burn because of bad management.

John Larkin has never heard of fuel reduction burns. It's a really bad idea to let dry brush built up until provides fuel for a really big fire.

Sydney gets a few smoky days ever spring while the fire services do fuel reduction burns. Maybe California will learn about the technique.

It's not a direct cause and effect relationship - bad mangers don't go around starting fires, Good managers go around starting fuel reduction burns that stop the larger scale fires that sometimes burn cities. John Larkin doesn't know much about any of that.

"More than 10,600 wildland firefighters and support personnel are assigned to incidents nationwide. Eleven new large fires were reported yesterday, six in California and Arizona, Florida, Hawaii, Montana and Washington each had one. Eleven new large fires and complexes have burned 515,705 acres in 14 states."

News come all the time ... Yellowknife ... Tenerife ... "emergency" ... "out of control". That when brutal heatwave is predicted yet coming to both central part of US and large part of Europe.

Millions acres burn, tens of thousands firefighters work everywhere, tens of thousands people lose homes weekly ... indeed "bad management". It just can't be global warming or CO2 because ads of fossil fuel industry denied it.
