Smart move Don lad. His (lack of) climate change policies also likely to have an impact: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969718333187?via%3Dihub Quote The area burned annually by wildland fire in Hawaii has increased fourfold in recent decades. The archipelago's novel fuel types and climatic heterogeneity pose significant challenges for fire risk assessment and fire management. Probability-based fire occurrence models using historical wildfire records provide a means to assess and attribute fire risk in regions of the world like Hawaii where investment in fire science is limited. This research used generalized additive models to 1) assess the relative contribution of vegetation, climate, and human-caused ignitions to the probability of fire in the northwest quadrant of Hawaii Island and 2) compare how landscape flammability varies due to interannual rainfall variability versus projected changes in mean annual rainfall (MAR) and temperature. Annual fire probability was highest for grasslands and peaked at drier conditions (0.04 at 450 mm MAR) when compared with shrublands (0.03 at 650 mm MAR) and forest (0.015 at 600 mm MAR). Excess rainfall the year prior to fire occurrence increased fire risk across grasslands, and thus overall fire probability, more so than drought the year that fire occurred. Drying and warming trends for the region under projected climate change increased maximum values of fire probability by as much as 375% and shifted areas of peak landscape flammability to higher elevation. Model predictions under future climate also indicate the largest changes in landscape flammability will happen by mid-Century. The influence of antecedent wet years on fire risk can improve near-term predictions of fire risk in Hawaii while climate projections indicate that fire management will need to be prioritized at upper elevations where high value natural resources are concentrated. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpie Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 Trump appoints a man as the Acting Attorney General who was part of a company and represented them on TV commercials, selling a product that has been proved a scam, and is pesently under investigation by the F.B.I Trump stands on TV yesterday prior to leaving for Europe and tells reporters not once but more than, that he does not know the appointee Whittaker, a Fox news interview a short time ago shows him telling the Fox reporter he knows Whittaker well, and he is an excellent man. In addition he met with Sessions and Whittaker on many occasions in the Oval Office where Whittaker apparently done the talking because Trump had so little use for Sessions. Florida and other elec tions, even Republicans including some GOP strategists are asking why so many results were so close in traditionally Republican areas. e.g Ted Cruz having a fairly narrow win. Reports Trump arrives in Europe and almost immediately Tweets c riticism of his close friend Macron, who is advocating a European army to protect against Russia and surprisingly United States. Figures were published a few days ago showing the caravan is dropping in numbers, and these numbers include large numbers of women and children contrary to the presidents assertion that there are thousands of criminals and gang members amongst them. The Stormy Daniels and the Playmate situation rears its ugly mushroom shaped head again, seems Trump according to his "I would take a bullet for him loyal lawyer" was directly involved and had a controlling influence on the payments to the ladies which it seems may be a crime against the Campaign donations legislation. Trump has until January when the new house takes office, the appointment of Whittaker would make it seem like there could be moves made against Mueller, if there are and they fail this I believe could open the door for Impeachment on the grounds of obstruction, similar to the situation that saw Nixon's lawyer jailed and Nixon telling his adoring public "I am not a crook", fast forward to Trump who could make a similar sincere statement " I am not a liar".

To add to that, he's much too modest to allow the world to see what a fantastically successful businessman he's been. He's the mirror image of his tax returns, unfathomably "complex".

You do have a point about the hair. Did you see him meeting Macron? His face was like thunder, worse than usual tbh. He obviously hadn't realised that something had been lost in translation when Macron said about an European Army and protecting against Russia, China & the US. What Macron meant but got lost in translation was that Europe can't rely on the USA all the time and if there were a European Army it would lift some of the burdon away from the USA protecting Europe against threats from Russia & China.

Are these fires being caused by forest mis-management or is Trump talking pish again? I mean wildfires in California are nothing new, but they're getting worse. This is from an abstract from a paper from 2008 analyzing where climate change would make fires worse: " In this analysis the largest changes in property damages under the climate change scenarios occurred in wildland/urban interfaces proximate to major metropolitan areas in coastal southern California, the Bay Area, and in the Sierra foothills northeast of Sacramento." (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10584-007-9363-z) Paradise, CA is in the Sierra foothills. Of course, even in climate change, you can manage a forest against increased risks, but it takes money. The US Forest Service's budget has been gutted in recent years.

God bless Donald Trump. The left with others is being used as an instrument to dissolve American and Europe into a borderless communist dystopia. Trump and Putin are against this and know that the stakes are very high. Hence the demonization. Huge change in the geo-political landscape is coming. The globalist NWOists have the upper hand at this time WRT the media news narrative. Truth is now very much a fluid commodity, a story can be spun and flipped in anyway they wish. Many don’t question they just blindly follow the surface narrative. Hence most here with complicit innocence jump on the anti-Trump rhetoric and claim this reality as their own. We see DT and VP facing extreme opposition to any reconciliation or closer alignment they may wish to implement. When Trump was elected, the stage was set for a joint populist revolt against the NWO. This had to be stopped by any means necessary, hence the concocted ‘Russian, Collusion, Delusion’ which for its instigators has served its purpose well- keeping the countries apart. Severely weaken a nations independence, pull down its borders, create division and polarisation then the NWO, Globalist, Central World Government elitists can have their way. A terrible and destructive future awaits, a time as yet unwitnessed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
