// - COMMENT - Paul brings up a very good point. There is an existing low cost innovation that was pioneered and successfully deployed in Canada that could have prevented the destruction of many of the buildings that were destroyed, namely - rooftop sprinkler systems - There are many rooftop sprinker systems available now. They should actually be mandated into law to have one in high risk fire areas. - https://search.brave.com/search?q=canada+forest+fire+prevention+rooftop+sprinkler+system&source=desktop&summary=1&conversation=375a9992d731deff34143a

// - comment - Paul provides a climate analysis of the overarching climate conditions that enabled the 2025 Los Angeles fires - The Santa Ana winds are a natural occurrence in this area but the climate change induced abnormalities have brought about alternating cycles of heavy rain and drought conditions - The preceding heavy rain period resulted in enormous growth of vegetation - The last two months of extreme drought conditions dried up all this additional growth creating enormous amounts of fuel for a fire - It was interesting to learn that cold air from the arctic plays a critical role in the Santa Ana winds, but Paul did not provide an explanation - This is one example of how the earth system is so interconnected
