Climate Change/Fires in the West

So we all know Democrats and the Green Party are going to push Global warming these next few weeks because of the fires, and I have a few questions, as I am uneducated on the subject.
How did climate change start these fires?
For a section in our country that gets a lot of rain, the Pacific Northwest, how are things claimed to be so dry?
Do you think this could be agenda driven fueled fires, to run people out of the rural areas? Agenda 21 or something like that?
Do you think these fires started accidentally or on purpose? And if on purpose, to create a climate change narrative leading up to the election? Does the timing seem nefarious?
Why aren’t the elected officials talking about the prevention of these fires starting and what they plan to do about it? Whether it’s climate change, carelessness or purposely.

They are arresting arsonists in California, Oregon, and Utah.

Why? Because Democrats.

They are going to have a tough time explaining the arson part of this story. When you have images of arsonists at blm rallies, it's going to be hard to explain away.
*not before Cnn runs the narrative of Trump's global warming

They're saying because of the so called temperature rise, it makes places hotter and dryer, thus causing normal fires to be much larger and uneasy to control.
But remember, any hurricane, avalanche, mud slide or stubbed toe is blamed on global warming/climate change.

Amazing how not a single person in charge of the states on fire want to take responsibility for the fact that they have done Zero Forrest management in 20 years. There is so much underbrush, that nature’s solution has always been wildfire. But no, it’s climate change!!! Idiots...

Cause it was 100 degrees like always in August so it must be climate change that started the fires

While elected officials in those areas are going on all the Sunday morning shows blaming it on climate change, not why or how these fires started. Isn’t that odd?

I'd agree but not in the way you insinuate. The climate of politics changing in those states is definitely responsible for the fires. It's called not managing your forests properly. Thank you Sierra Club idiots.

When environmentalists intentionally seek laws to prevent access roads from being maintained through the parks and government owned land. Combine the inability to use roads and the use of ponds, steams, rivers and lakes as water sources ...there is no ability to stay on site and reduce the spread of fires. You rely on planes and helicopters flying back and forth to fight. In wind situations, that is a losing proposition.
Meanwhile ...when the Electric Utility is faced with an economy that featured NO EXPANSION for eight years (Obama), things have to be put on the back burner. Clearing of foliage under power lines was stopped. Renewal and upgrading of equipment on the back burner.
PGE was driven into bankruptcy because of the policies of the state. Portland Gas and Electric will go down, as will Southern California Edison. Insane policies passed by Politicians that can barely make it the bathroom caused this ....nothing else.

I believe the forests were mismanaged and bad policies carried out but I also think the fires were purposely started knowing full well what the impact would be. Now they can push climate change and the new green deal even stronger.

They need to clean up the under brush like they have been told for years. Controlled burns saves lives, trees and animals

The left used to call it Global Warming, then they realized they if they said Climate Change they could blame every weather event on it and not just events because of warm weather.
It's all a huge scam to funnel money into green technology and throw trillions in the toilet overseas.

This plus the fact that they stopped/reduced clearing dry brush and doing their usual fire prevention maintenance.

It's been more than 20 years in the making, but yes intentional forest management for all the wrong "naturalist" and eco-nut reasons has created the situation. Debris build up, thickets of dry undergrowth, dead trees, no thinning of the forest, and no fire breaks have all made a tinder-box. People where not even allowed to gather twigs and branches for fire wood. Protecting the spotted owl, mice and snakes as part of the natural ecosystem were the claimed causes. Now they are crispy critters.
Yeah, there is an arson craze going around very similar to that in Australia where the arsonists were often the same people protesting for more eco-nut forest mismanagement.

I would say the vast majority of these fires and the magnitude of which they are able to get too has been brought on by the earth lovers own policies.
They want to leave as much land as they can untouched, as if man has never been there....so all the underbrush dies and then dries up just ready to be ignited....one fire gets started, embers start getting blown, ignites all this dried up dead underbrush and the fire rages on making it extremely difficult to maintain.
If these frickers would do responsible land conservation, this dead underbrush would get cleaned out....which would remove the fuel for these fires....ultimately limiting the intensity and size at which these fires can spread.
Oh and OMB
