About 1,420 fires were burning more than 356,134 acres (139,671 hectares), according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.

So, that’s (356,134 acres) x (13 million tons of CO2 / 2.7 acres) = 1,714,719 MILLION tons of carbon dioxide liberated into the environment.

Hmmmm…..now that’s 1.7 TRILLION tons of harmful carbon dioxides injected into our precious environment by the rubes in California, who claim to want to stop global warming, IN JUST THIS CALIFORNIA WEEK ALONE.

One thing for sure, California is incapable of managing it’s forests, which are an international resource, and is HARMING the environment by dumping carbon into the atmosphere.
