[Mega] MAGA Super Trump Mega Thread

look at this from a different perspective. coal companies are so concerned about their profit margins that they won't think twice about polluting our glorious nation if it means saving a buck here or there. putting a coal lobbyist in charge of the EPA enables coal companies to get away with shady practices at the expense of our land. sure some coal executives stand to make more money out of this deal but at what cost. how is that good for ordinary Americans?
 
usa electricity 30.4% in 2016 Coal supplied 12.6 quadrillion BTUs of primary energy to electric power plants in 2017, which made up 91% of coal's contribution to US energy supply.
 
There are approximately 174,000 blue-collar, full-time, permanent jobs related to coal in the U.S.: mining (83,000), transportation (31,000), and power plant employment (60,000).
 
At the rate fracking tech is going we wont need saudia arabia anymore

Fracking fucks the environment though so double edge sword, we gain oil independence but risk big environmental fuckups
 
OK, so - I will give CA credit for an innovative anti-global warming strat. Friction causes heat. The earth is spinning and trees cause air resistance. A totally bald earth would create less friction when it spins. So, by getting rid of the trees, that reduces friction and therefore heat on the earth. I get it now. Still though, that black carbon release. Maybe more hybrids can put a dent in that. Maybe friction-less hybrids. Maybe a height and air resistance co-efficient tax? We can work together.
 
The reason the fire is so big?

It never got to burn naturally


Lighting strikes forests bro we gonna charge you co2 tax if lighting hits your house?


:ftard: logic bro
 
But this wasn't lightning. It was power companies operating in CA. With contracts to do so. One on probation for causing issues in the past. In the middle of a bunch of uncleared tinder. Negligent. Just negligent. And dirty. Just a dirty way to live. Look at all that carbon emission. Worst in the world at the moment. Monumental. Also, it was so dry because CA re-routed all the water in the entire state to save an extinct fish. Also, to drive out farmers and lower real-estate prices so that it can be abandoned and resold for pennies on the dollar. CA has weaponized water, fire and air.
 
Its doesn't matter that tinder would have burned naturally if the rich didnt stop natural burns. 4 of 5 smaller natural burns or one big crazy burn same net co2 release.


What dont you get about this either way it would have burned
 
That's like saying that murder doesn't exist because we all die. Even Mexico is not on fire all the time. The middle east also does a great job of controlling large scale fires.
 
cali power companies will make multi billions per yr with
high speed electric train, that has been delayed because land owners wont sell.

power companies have admitted fault in over 80% of cali fires in last 2yrs...
