Not to mention or relative lack of forest management in rural areas. I’m originally from the mountains in central cali, and my father is a wildland captain. There’s so little being done to actually address the issues that will make our fire seasons so bad, mostly due to bureaucracy and outside lobbying.

Californian here. pG&E is so bad, and it gets so much worse in rural areas. Our infrastructure just needs to be rebuilt from the ground up, it’s not working. With climate change and forest mismanagement as well, we can’t just continue on thinking that this is normal. Between fires and floods, I don’t see how it’s sustainable to just think that rolling blackouts and outages that last weeks to months is safe or healthy.

Californian politics, like most, is about pointing fingers instead of solving problems. I’m sick of it.
