California has done quite a bit on this. Local ordinances and state laws, and federal pressure. It's not getting the help needed.
Not that anything is going to be done about it for the foreseeable future, with Captain Fuckwit in charge.
Not true! He'll implement the Federal Forest Raking Program and solve this problem forever!

Only to prevent wildfires around Mar-a-Lago and the compounds of other billionaires who donate suitcases full of cash to him.
Thanks, stay-at-home lefties!
writes a meteorologist and climate journalist
This is barely one step removed from “claims” and “warns”. There’s no need to separate the source from the news in this headline except to distance the outlet from according this disaster to climate change.
There's a link at the top of the site called "Climate crisis" and the Guardian is often accused of being too left wing.
Y'know people don't even read the articles, right?
You want them to click on this, read the article, then find and click on a separate link and then find what the key point is in that second article or articles and relate it to this one? That's not good UI design. That's terrible journalism.
The Guardian is leftish, yes, but that's not the point. The point is that wording things in such a way as to deliberately obfuscate the deeper story is what's wrong. That's not a "left wing" thing that's a corporate thing, that's a "both sides" thing and it was due to end 40 years ago.
