    Quite a bit.

    It doesn't matter, as the cabon dioxide released by the wildfires is biological carbon. The fires are just putting back carbon dioxide that was absorbed by photosynthesis.

    They're probably putting just about the same amount into the air that they removed from the air while they were growing. That's kind of the way plants work. The problems come from burning the carbon from long buried plants (i.e., coal), not so much from plants that are living today.

    I would say their carbon footprint is larger than the rest of The US combined.

    Would've never happened as bad had Donald Frump not become President.

    All the smart Presidents before him, knew global warming existed and had consequences in neglecting.

    So... half burnt up Ventura county and northern Cali is HIS FAULT. I'd say he even planned it that way. Except he's stupid.

    Conservatives can come up with some pretty pathetic ways to hate on California.
