#4 Not to kick these idiots when they're down, but how much CO2 and particulate matter (aka soot) do these raging fires release? Doesn't seem very green. Unless blackened is the New Green.

Good question, SteveS. Fact is, PG&E could save upwards of $2 billion per year if the state did not compel them to buy the far more expensive "green" energy. That's money that could have been spent on upgrading the utility's 100-year-old infrastructure that has been proven to be the cause of so many of these fires. The carbon emissions from these fires are far greater than all the oil and natural gas would have generated. But Newsom would prefer to blame Trump.

Ever see a power plant pollute this much?

#8 Jerry Brown Blames Trump, Republicans for California Fires: ‘The Blood Is on Your Soul’

Brown has always had a flare for the dramatic and he has always been reality impaired.

#12 Now, now, Skid. They mean controlled burns in the forests, not in the cities.
