Werent a bunch of the fires started by arsonists?

[–] AnotherDirtyAnglo@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

Many started because forest fires can survive winter by burning slowly underground through root systems. Combined with the lack of snowpack this year, the melting snow didn't extinguish them -- leading to a record number of fires earlier than ever recorded before.

A perfect time to #AxeTheTax, right?
