Both the Camp Fire in Paradise and the Woolsey Fire in Thousand Oaks, which caused much devastation, occurred on privately owned forest
Study: Wildfires Burn More Severely On Private Timber Plantations Than Public Forests
Study co-author Chris Dunn of Oregon State University says federal forests (BLM- or Forest Service-managed) still burn severely. And the exclusion of fire in the 20th century likely means the wildfires across public lands are burning hotter than they did historically.
But he said tree plantations on commercial timberland play a larger role in severe wildfire than is often acknowledged.
“To me it means that they share in the responsibility in this checkerboard landscape to the overall picture of fire risk,” Dunn said. “It’s not the full picture, but it’s part of it. But if they contribute to part of it, then they share in that responsibility.”
These wildfires are being set purposely using a litany of weapons to drive people off of their property and it's all a part of Agenda 21/ Agenda 2030. The west is particularly important to the global elites. No one can tell me how these fires burn down and destroy granite counter-tops but leave trees standing mere feet away from the property.

Live trees can survive devastating fires. Depends on the depth of their roots and moisture availability during it's life and if it's been exposed to fire previously and how often...…...they can become what you might call 'hardened' against fire...…..just sayin
Cars burning up from the inside out? I also saw footage of a tree that was burning from the inside out. This is an attack on Californians and the communist Agenda 21/Agenda 2030 plan is at the heart of it.
I don't know about the cars or whatever agenda's......but I do know healthy trees can survive fires. Trees with thick bark that protect the tree from many types of disaster tend to die from within.
We have a woodstove for winter heat, and I've seen plenty of wood from trees that are rotting from the inside while the outside looks fine. Also much of the insect damage occurs in forests is from the insects boring into, feeding from and nesting within the trees, making them more susceptible.
The trees in the pics that survived the fire, were trees within the community that would have little or no underbrush to defer away any moisture, rainwaters, nutrients, or harbor insects and would be more healthy because of it and more likely to survive.
The trees in a dense unkept forest are more vulnerable to damage, whether from the outside or the inside. Trump was right about mismanagement of forest lands only added fuel to the fire, literally and figuratively.
No doubt that that forests in California and the upkeep of them has been mismanaged, but these fire events are destroying porcelain and granite , melting glass while the trees are pristine. Footage of laser light hitting targets. Here is a long time Fire Captain speaking about the same type of fires last year.
