Devilish Fires in California
From: Chuck Darling
Sept 12, 2024
Bridge, Line, Airport Fires...
The 3 fires currently raging
in Southern California 9/12/24
are:
The Bridge Fire: 50,000 Acres
0% Contained.
The Line Fire: 17,000 Acres
The Airport Fires: 23,000 Acres
Current Total: 100,000 Acres
15 full-time Car-Years per Acre
= 1,650,000 Car Years.
Americans don't drive continuously...
They drive 1/30th of a year, per year.
California has 14,268,528
registered vehicles.
1,650,000 * 30 = 49,500,000 driver years.
49,500,000 ÷ 14,268,528 = 3.469 years.
In ONE WEEK these fires have produced
the C02 equivalent
that
ALL THE CARS IN CALIFORNIA
produce in 3.469 years .
Over THREE TIMES the pollution
that ALL the 14 million cars
produce annually.
Fires are FAR WORSE than CARS.
