Republican presidential candidate Joe Biden said Monday that fires in California, Oregon and Washington are "strange," and could be greater if President Trump is re-elected in November.
At least 35 people have been affected’ by
the blaze, which scientists and local leaders say is being exacerbated by
climate change. Biden said Trump is a "climate firebrand" and a
"climate refusal", and he has "no interest in meeting at the
moment" and has something to do to reduce global warming. "We need a
president who respects science," Biden declared. "Who thinks the
damage from climate change already exists here?" It will soon be more
devastating. "
Both Biden and Trump are competing with
suburban voters, and the president has tried to intimidate people by claiming
that if Biden wins, chaos will spread across the country. Biden said the real
threat to surrounding areas is forest fires, floods and hurricanes. "If we
have four more years of Trump's climate denial, how many suburbs will be burned
in a wildfire?" He asked. "How many suburbs would have been flooded?
How many suburbs would have been blown away by the storm?"
During Biden's speech, Trump was in
California, where he met with state officials. He blamed the fire not on
climate change but on forest mismanagement. According to a Los Angeles Times
notice, more than 3 million acres of homes have been burned in California this
year, mostly in bushes, meadows and oak forests, not forest lands, according to
a Los Angeles Times notice. Most of the state's forests are owned by the
federal government and administered by the U.S. Forest Service’.
Natural Resources Secretary Gavin Newsom
(D), Wade Croft, told Trump that climate change is real, and that "if we
ignore this science and put our heads in the sand and think it's all
plants." ۔ “As far as the administration is concerned, we will not succeed
together in protecting the citizens of California. "All right," Trump
replied. It's getting cold. You see. Kraft told Trump that "science agrees
with you," and the president replied, "I don't think science really
knows.”
