"Firefighting made up 16 percent of the U.S. Forest Service’s budget in 1995, but as climate change led to longer and more severe fire seasons, the share of the agency’s budget dedicated to fighting fires ballooned to 50 percent by 2015 — roughly $1.2 billion." Now, this is a nothing more than a damned lie There is not ONE SHRED of credible evidence that that a 1 degree increase in surface temperature, if it even happened, is causing fires to balloon. That is utterly absurd. Maybe some years there are more fires. But you cannot DUMP that on climate change. Just stupid.
