There have always been wildfires. Whether sourced from lightning strikes, human activates such as camp fires getting out of hand and clearing land for agriculture, volcanic activity and even earthquake by the piezoelectric effects of bending rock. Although mainstream science says that last one is not the case, others such a Dutchsinse have documented just that using satellite imagery showing the link between hotspots near earthquakes and wildfires igniting. One of the worst sources of wildfires starting is by deliberate and intentional arson.
On that theme, Phys dot Org stated in a March 2022 article that “Fires have gotten larger, more frequent and more widespread across the United States since 2000” and they are 4 times larger and 3 times more frequent. And as expected, they blame it on changes in climate. Forgive me, but I do not see how a handful of degrees in a day’s temperature can all of a sudden cause an increase in wildfires, let alone start one. True, I will admit that drier conditions can increase the likelihood of ignition and speed of spread, but cannot cause its original spark. I will argue however that there has NOT been a proven increase in world temperatures although there have been variations in an area by area comparison as any intelligent observer would admit.
CNN agrees in a February 2022 article where they claimed wildfires are getting more extreme and burning more land, but the kicker is when they also claimed “report released Wednesday by the UN Environment Programme suggests it’s time we “learn to live with fire” and adapt to the uptick in the frequency and severity of wildfires”. That to me sounds like they are warning us that they are going to cause far more and likely even worse fires in the near future. They push the official but false narrative that “Wildfires now burn longer and are becoming hotter in places where they have always occurred; meanwhile, fires are also igniting and spreading in unexpected places, including wetlands, drying peatlands and on thawing permafrost in the Arctic” is somehow to be expected. In August of 2021 Al Jazeera published a graph that shows the increase in wildfires around the world, shown below.
The newest fires I can find are going on now in Chile. CNN reported “Devastating wildfires tearing through swaths of Chile have killed more than 120 people, authorities said Monday, as they warned that the death toll was set to rise….. photographs and footage over the weekend laid bare the trail of destruction wrought in multiple communities by the infernos.” The normal mainstream news is not covering very much of this mass of various fires in Chile, maybe because they are planning something worse for here. Maybe WLT Report had the best headline on this latest fire; “Chile Burned To The Ground: “It’s Maui All Over Again!””. The Satellite photos on CBS news of the before and after of cities involved show massive destruction with well over a thousand homes destroyed as if they just gone through a major war. And the standard story of how “climate change” is the cause of the increasing deadliness and destruction is included as that seems to be part of the official narrative they must report.
