The 2018 California Wildfires as Seen from Space
Malibu's dry brush and steep clay slopes make it prone to fires, floods, mudslides and earthquakes. Poor grading practices and over-irrigation or leaking pipes exacerbate the tendency for landslides.
Much of Paradise was destroyed by fire on November 8, 2018, after the community was struck by the fast-moving Camp Fire, which had within a day killed at least 43 people and destroyed at least 7,177 structures, of which 6,453 were homes.
Wildfires are getting worse each year. One could also say that about all Earth Changes as they accelerate exponentially in end times. Sadly insanity rages along with wildfires. All you can do is be prepared if that.
Wildfires bring climate's dark forces to the stratosphere PhysOrg - November 27, 2018
Large amounts of black carbon particles from wildfires reach the stratosphere where they can induce strong local heating and thus influence regional climate. Wildfires, like those currently burning in California, have a large environmental impact. Uncontrolled blazes can burn tens of thousands of acres, destroy vegetation and settlements, and severely affect local and regional air quality. An international team of scientists have now found that wildfire impact on the atmosphere may be even stronger than previously thought. The researchers discovered that large amounts of soot, which contains a lot of black carbon and is released by wildfires, can be transported through the troposphere up to the lowermost stratosphere around 10 kilometers altitude. Black carbon is the most strongly light-absorbing aerosol material from fires and is regarded as one of the most important individual climate-warming agents.
