Governor Jerry Brown
Governor Jerry Brown’s aide wants Americans to treat climate change like World War III and Brown is blaming the wildfires on climate change/climate chaos/global warming despite the fact that slews of scientists are telling him that is not the cause.
Flanked by firefighter used as props, he addressed the wildfires in front of the TV cameras Monday.
The wilderness fire was “a real wake-up call” to reduce the carbon pollution “that is in many respects driving all of this,” he said.
“It’s a new normal,” he said in August. “California is burning.”
Brown is embroiled in a fight with the oil industry over legislation to slash gasoline use in California. He has been to Rome and spoken at a conference before the Pope stating his case on the global climate change movement.
