If you don’t believe in climate change, come to California.
This is from today. And is just a small part of the nearly 600 fires we are battling this week.
@GavinNewsom
I'm terrified
My beautiful state is burning
Climate change is real and we know what causes it.
I just watched a video of 2 California firefighters surrounded by fire being rescued by a chopper pilot will mad skills. Our 1st responders are so heroic.
@GavinNewsom
Anyone who doesn't believe in Climate change at this point, with all of the scientific and visual evidence we now have, is simply a fool.
I've been in California since college, and never before have I been so frequently warned via text of the horrific air quality we now endure.
@GavinNewsom
I do not disbelieve that Climate Change is a real situation we need to take seriously, but if this is a result of climate change, why are we the only state that deals with fires at this level. It seems there is also some forest managment responsibility California needs to take.
@GavinNewsom
What do you call it when PG&E causes a fire, or we don’t have enough firefighters and equipment, or we don’t cut down trees or plow fire breaks, or we build communities in heavily wooded areas? That’s called mismanagement.
@GavinNewsom
Hey Gavin, those are forest fires, caused by lightning strikes, and exacerbated by your green policies that forbid grooming forests and removing dead wood debris, causing the areas around our communities to be literal tinderboxes.
My opponent in the general election, Nancy Pelosi, endorsed a centrist challenger to replace Senator
@EdMarkey
, the Senate co-sponsor of the

Why is Pelosi undermining
#ClimateJustice
?
More importantly, are
#NotMeWe
going to let her get away with that?
@GavinNewsom
Terrible. My sympathies. But haven’t these fires been a way of life for California for hundreds of years ? It is hot for sure, but how does it prove global warming ?
@GavinNewsom
Um...they’ve arrested people for contributing to this “climate change”.....also has Greta given you permission to voice your opinion? How dare you lol
@GavinNewsom
way to punt the blame for your inability to prepare and do some land management since the Camp Fires of 2018.
always fighting fires is a sign of mismanagment.
