A Wildfire PSA

Forest Fire PSA1

If you pay any kind of attention, you might have noticed that Donald Trump doesn’t have a very clear understanding of some pretty basic concepts of how the world works.  It’s most obvious when he displays a basic lack of understanding of grocery shopping (No, you DON’T need a picture ID to purchase cereal).  But it becomes a danger to people when that lack of understanding bleeds over into things like how the environment works.  His recent comments about the wildfires in California, and his threats to cut federal funding as a result show his incompetence could really hurt people all the more.  I’m sorry, Don, but no, Finland doesn’t avoid wildfires because they keep their forests well raked. Your “instincts” for science are failing you kind of hard, dude.
