Or is it climate change now? Either way another government-caused environmental disaster. Forest Service says it started all of New Mexico's largest wildfire | Reuters
Two blazes that grew into New Mexico's largest ever wildfire were both started by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS), the agency said on Friday, prompting the state's governor to demand the federal government take full responsibility for the disaster.
Forest Service investigators determined the Calf Canyon Fire was caused by a "burn pile" of branches that the agency thought was out but reignited on April 19, the Santa Fe National Forest said in a statement.
That was the second part of the 1-2 punch. They had previously decided that they needs a "controlled burn." Which went okay, except for the "controlled" part.
That blaze on April 22 merged with the Hermits Peak Fire, which the USFS started with a controlled burn that went out of control on April 6, the agency previously reported.
312,320 acres burned.
Blazing a more than 40-mile-long (64-km-long) path up the Sangre de Cristo mountains, the fire has destroyed watersheds and forests used for centuries by Indo-Hispano farming villages and Native American communities.
Whatever problem you are trying to solve, more government is not the answer.
Hat tip to Pirate's Cove. Oops: Biden’s Forestry Service Started New Mexico Wildfires
Don’t expect the Warmists to give up their talking points in favor of Reality.
I mean, be fair. How can you get more money out the system or more power into the system based on governmental negligence and incompetence?
And this isn't the first time the .gov has caused its own ecological disaster. Consider the Animas River Spill, from 2015, wherein the EPA completely contaminated a river with heavy metals.
"I'm from the government and I'm here to help," is still one of the most frightening sentences in the English language.
