“California Burning” ~ ?

[Bible Speaks]

California Burning” ~ ????????

One of the largest wildfires in CaliforniaÂ’s history is still raging through the rugged coastal mountains near Santa Barbara.

A few nights ago the hills looked like a scene from the apocalypse as the flames were encroaching upon homes on the outskirts of town.

More than eight thousand firefighters from all over the American West are combating the blaze in an operation that is as massive as the fire itself. California is used to wildfires, but the ferocity and the magnitude of recent outbreaks is rattling people.

Governor Jerry Brown calls these megafires part of the “New Normal,” as the state is adapting to the consequences of climate change. Our local firefighters are heroes when it comes to battling the flames, but they can only address the symptoms of a planet under pressure.

We need a different and much bigger global force to address the root causes of the inferno that will impact all of us unless we act.
