Fire

Ahhh yes, but no!!!! Saltwater will kill the vegetation and bring great harm to the wildlife which is about to roast!!!!!!! jmho OT

Fire is short term. Vegetation starts growing within weeks animals come back . Did you know sequoia trees drop seeds only when there has been a fire. So fire has been an part of the ecosystem in California for thousands of years
Introduce salt and it could take decades before anything returns .
They use salt on roads here and it does kill the vegetation on the road side small scale but it does kill.

The video guy points out something to think about. It's true. When you live near the ocean, there is a salty mist. You can taste it. Salt is already there. Near our part of the Pacific Ocean, there is shore pine growing right up to the edge of high tide. It's getting a dose of salt. It's there already.

A possible cause of the Palisades fire. Note how long it takes to investigate such things, unlike the work of the meme makers.

Might be fireworks

More international help. I've not read about the usual fire people who come from Australia. We sometimes exchange both ways.

More Help

The 'City of Angels' has become the 'City of Crispy Critters' Totally preventable and totally a democrat caused issue. Has zero to do with climate change and everything to do with poor political management.

Far as Canada is concerned, if I was Canadian, I'd not be throwing stones at anyone in as much as you may become the 51st State.... I see many Canadians are in favor of just that. Understandable, you are taxed to death and have a healthcare system where you could very well expire just waiting to get to see a doctor.

Not some place I'd want to live at all.

I grew up in Los Angeles, during the 60s and 70s. We used to get occasional Santa Ana winds, but we also used to get rain in the winter. Way hotter and drier there than 50 years ago!
