  24. These disastrous fires were eventually going to happen on this large scale because of several factors coming together. Too many people want to live in this lush temperate climate with mild weather year round. This region was never meant to support millions of people in fact 24 million live in southern California!! And im not just talking about southern California because every state in the southwest is vulnerable to serious wildfires. Remember the 300 K acre grassland fire in the north texas panhandle a year or so ago?! It's hard enough to provide enough food to all of those people, but to provide enough water as well is taxing the environment and the human ability to distribute it. On top of the burgeoning population is growing spectre of climate change. Los Angeles is mormally in its rainy season at this time, but instead it is bone dry with the region only receiving 1/4 inch of rain since last May!! Increasing drought was predicted by climate scientists decades. Some people have even said that the climate scientists are always wrong in their predictions and yet here we are! Now combine the drought with the Santa Ana winds and there's a recipe for a fire storm. Even if an arsonist started any of these fires that alone doesn't explain their blowing up so fast. This will continue to happen in other cities and regions until we all begin to take radical steps to change our life styles. The attachment to living in luxory has got be down sized. Living in densely populated cities in houses that can't resist fast moviing fires has got to change. Don't live in this part of the country if you are afraid wildfires of course many will be willing to still take the risk. A few more fires like this will change anyone's mind!!
