Science is telling us:

Summer Droughts are 8 - 13% Drier

Lightening has increased by 20%

Atmospheric Rivers hold 15 - 23% More Moisture

The Factors are Increasing and Piling on!

But hey let's keep propping up, subsidizing, enabling, facilitating, and making sure the Status Quo is the only way!!

Gosh this is sad Matthew!

I was on a University of Washington student field trip (Northeast CA to Sequoia-Kings NP) in Sept 1997.

Lead by the one & only Dr. Jerry Franklin with Dr. Bob Van Pelt.

We visited Teakettle!

It was 11 days of driving & visiting forests in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

1911 Weeks Act was a direct response to 1910 Big Burn in Idaho & Montana that burned 3 million acres.

The Big Burn/the Weeks Act have been applied across North America since then with Smokey the Bear's help to say: All Fire is Bad!

As well, Total Bans of Indigenous Burning have loaded the dice!

Maybe tRump having "learned his lesson" way back when is paying dividends now eh Susan Collins??!!

Yes, something big or very small.

A Fire can start from something as little as sun reflected on a piece of glass or plastic, a flicked cigarette butt British Columbia fire near Barriere (www.google.com/search?q=bar...), or from 20% More Lightening, and the 60 - 80% of Fires Caused By Humans.

To slow down Climate Change and Global Warming me will need Preparations A to Zed!!!

But at the moment we've run through Preparations A to G.

So of course Preparation H is good on the whole and/or hole on Planet Earth and Uranus!!!

It is better to work things out thru the Uranus Corporation!!

We need to do all three at the same time!

Doing none of the three, or doing just one or two of the three is not an option either!

And taking the Three Musketeers' motto: All for One, and One For All, and modifying it:

Three For All, and All For Three!!

Science, Empathy, and Critical Thinking!

@donwinslow.bsky.social

I thought the same thing!

Journalists like Woodward & Bernstein chased the story to the end with Walter Cronkite covering the story in great detail on CBS, ironically!

There was CREEP then & we have Creep now!

The amount of bending a knee by the media is incredible!

Hey @theguardian.com you forgot to mention all of the Old Growth Wood that has been the basis for @Drax coming from Old Growth Forests in British Columbia (BC)!!!

Ask conservationnorth.org

Drax built their empire on BC Old Growth before they moved into the US South and increasingly California!!

It's all fun and games until a Fatburger hits you in the eye!!

I wonder if in the future we will be looking for the Cheeseburger Memorandum??!!

Or a Signal Chat??!!

Or will there be a movie called: All of the President's Cheeseburgers??!!

I suppose just like Dean Wormer and Delta House, all of these students were on Double Secret Probation, but didn't know it or were not told!

This comment is intended as a little bit funny to try and comprehend the absolutely craziness of turning over records!

Did We forget the McCarthy Hearings?!!

Yes!!

It appears she Noem's Nothing about the Geneva Convention!!!

What is the Common Denominator or Foundation between:

Northwest Forest Plan 1994
Clayoquot Sound Scientific Panel Reports 1995
BC Forest Practices Code 1994 - 2004
Great Bear Rainforest Agreement 2016

You might ask?

Ecosystem Based Management (EBM)

The BC Forest Practices Code 1994 - 2004 has a direct line to the Northwest Forest Plan through the work of many researchers in the US PNW and in #BritishColumbia.

The NWFP has a direct line to the Great Bear Rainforest Agreement 2016 & the Clayoquot Sound Scientific Panel Reports 1995.
March 22, 2025 at 6:07 AM
In #BritishColumbia, we had a bit of a shot at protecting Old Growth under the BC Forest Practices Code 1994 - 2004 that required the representative Old Growth be retained in every cutblock in Wildlife Tree Patches and Riparian Reserves!!
March 22, 2025 at 6:03 AM
Here is #BritishColumbia & #BCForests, we can only dream of the widespread protections that the 30 Years of NWFP have provided to the Spotted Owl in Washington, Oregon, and Northern California.
March 22, 2025 at 6:03 AM
The Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) (for the Spotted Owl & included Riparian Buffers for Salmon) has done incredible work looking after super important Old Growth Forests.
