> Insurance companies canceled coverage on houses in neighborhoods that later burned. Government officials blame climate change, but the real problem lies with state and local governments.

> First, LA experienced a lot of rainfall in 2022 and 2023. The wet conditions spurred the growth of a lot of brush and grasses on the hills surrounding LA’s metropolitan area. 2024 brought an exceptionally hot summer and almost no rain during what was supposed to be the wet season, which dried out the now abundant vegetation.
I really tire of hearing climate change stated over and over again for weather patterns I have lived through my entire life in California. California has always had long droughts broken up by very wet years. I didn't address climate change in my post [California Wild Fires: Perspective of a Native Californian](https://stacker.news/items/848838) because I think this whole argument is stupid.
