"Historically, California burned more than it does now, but at [a] lower intensity and slower," Quinn-Davidson said. "Now, we are seeing fires that are unusual, like the Camp Fire that, at one point, burned through 70,000 acres [about 280 square km] in a day. We've never seen that before." The change in our climate, perpetuated by human-made greenhouse gas emissions, extends the window of the annual fire season.
This area is now filled with houses covered in PLASTICS.
Look at the photos.
The brush burned and the trees were signed but the PLASTIC COVERED HOUSES BURNED TO ASHES.
Outer plastic covers is a problem but in wind driven fire like the Camp Fire the eave and roof vents let embers into the interior of the structure. Bad news very fast.
