    I'm confused between the way zones are described(red) and appear(pink). Maybe they should be very different shades.

    "Wildfires release carbon dioxide emissions and other greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change." So how does the EPA sign off on Green Energy power plants that have been determined to be a "potential trigger for wildfire" without having the means to extinguish the wildfire it will trigger?

    Oh how joyous it is!! I remember living along the Gulf Coast in Louisiana in 2008 and all of the idiots from California talking smack about us deserving the hurricanes, the damage to peoples homes and lives and making fun of the poor people who live there. Now here I sit in Modesto, laughing my ass off at these same people crying because they are losing their homes... Oh the irony of it all is so beautiful!!!
