—“Furthermore, contrary to corporate media’s constant whining, climate policy is NOT the “only way” to reduce fires. Prescribed burning, improved zoning and enhanced land management are much faster, more effective and cheaper solutions for fires than climate policy, explained the authors.”
Not to mention, if they stopped paying rogue players to start the fires 😑 That would go a long way too.
I was going to say that overall fires are down globally? Quick…hire arsonists all over the globe and start setting fires! We can’t lose our propaganda narrative that climate change will burn us all up! We’ll go broke. 😒
Money for many different industries. I worked food service at a firecamp in California somewhere north east of Ridgecrest in 2000 I think it was. We were serving $25 per plate, dinners every night,,,charged to the state,,,even to the convicts got the same food.
Also, the price of raw wood is way down and has been for some time (price of lumber is up because the saw mills can't keep up with the demand -- so that's another economic story.) Burn the trees, the price of raw wood goes up (for those who still have trees to sell.) Sounds like a plan.
Right??? Lol. Agree. Just like venturing over the yellow tape around a park during the coof pandemic. I am like..."What are they going to do, arrest me??" Haha. I will take their recommendations and raise it with a huge UP THEIRS.
Exactly. I’ve noticed the globalists can only handle one issue at a time. Black Lives Matter, then trans, then wildfires, etc. their efforts seem to go in a few directions all at once then shift to the next set of aims.
I can hear the wailing of triggered snowflakes ❄️ 🤣. Not to mention the rising sea levels caused by all their melting. 😅 Whew! I find this hilarious and I do everything I can to make sure the alarmies trigger.
“Fewer burning acres each year have led to overall lower levels of smoke, which likely prevents almost 100,000 infant deaths annually...” well now it’s clear why they must continue to set these fires...they literally kill 2 birds with one stone...
Corrie ten Boom added .... and put up a “No Fishing” sign.
She or someone else commented that east & west are never ending - go west & keep on trucking. Go east.... same thing. Signifying those transgressions are gone, caput, unlocatable (my made up word).
Oh how I love Isaiah 40! These repeated words always grab me by the heart…
Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth….
The entire chapter is magnificent, here’s another gem from it…
“A voice says, “Cry!” And I said, “What shall I cry?” All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades when the breath of the Lord blows on it; surely the people are grass. The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever.”
When I read the last part of that scripture, I hear it being sung by the football player in “Remember the Titans,” the one they called Preacher, I think 😏 Thanks for sharing such powerful encouragement every day, Janice!
When I read these words in the scriptures from Isaiah you wrote today….it reminds me of all the young people who are being affected by the vx during these uncertain days…Lord, pour out Your healing hand and mercy upon them all…..
“Though youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous young men stumble badly,”……….. almost a prophecy…
For reals? What insanity is this? I wish I was a lawyer/legal person and could file an injunction! Those LED and other non-incandescent bulbs are full of toxic substances and radiate noxious light spectrums! The harms vastly outweigh any benefit! The nanny state should F off!
LED lights can have a negative health impact The light is also harsh and abrasive in comparison to incandescent. There is no legitimate reason to ban these.
My daughter works as zookeeper, mostly with reptiles and amphibians (and she loves them all). Incandescent lights are a mainstay for zoos because they are a heat and light source. These cold blooded animals need to have warmth to survive. With the incandescent bulbs being banned they must now purchase "reptile branded products." Which means much, much more expensive.
Wow, by using LED bulbs, folks could save $100 a year? That gets a family what? Barely a weeks worth of groceries? Let folks decide where they want to scrimp and save.
LEDs hurt my eyes when I read. I much prefer incandescent bulbs.
Government officials must be heavily invested in LED manufacturing companies.
I think it's about control. LEDs can mess with vision and also cause some to become agitated due to the flashing. Not sure what epileptics will do, hopefully they have a stash. I hate our entire government.
Not to mention the LED bulbs and other electrical things are said to be able to link to wifi and possibly be able to track movements in homes... sounds like science fiction but it is like seeing through walls. 1984 surveillance?
in areas that have blizzards.... the traffic lights get obscured with snow, because they don't produce the heat to melt the snow....
not a good situation when a diver doesn't see that there is even a light there and the other person sees a green light.
they can install heaters, but who verifies the heaters work and how often, where as all a person has to do is look up at the traffic light and verify the light works.....
Ha ha--they have been illegal in CA since 2018, I think?
I've been lighting my home with multiple-socket fixtures and "appliance" 40-watts or "decorative" 60-watts for years. Oh, and the 3-ways if the fixture can handle the middle wattage. Good times.
I wondered if specific bulbs would be exempted from the LED requirement. I recently bought some LED for my ceiling can lights and they didn’t work! The only reason I bought them is because they were all they had at Lowe’s. I’m sure they had quit carrying incandescent since they wouldn’t be able to sell them. But I had to return the LEDs and order incandescent online. I hope I don’t have to replace my fixtures when I run of of my stock!
I went looking for the heck of it - so far (today) they are on Amazon... which I hate. Also eBay. You can buy all sorts of fun stuff from India on eBay and I'm betting incandescents will be sold as 'collectors items'.
My sister lives in Cali, northern rural Shasta County. She told me yesterday that her neighbor cannot put up a sign advertising his farm eggs because it is illegal in California. The eggs are NOT certified by the state! I am like "Shut the front door!". Those over-reaching B's.

Reminds me of a “Last Man Standing” episode several years ago where Mike was trying to buy 75 watt bulbs on the “black market” of a hardware store sales guy. Hilarious.
Back when Dubya was President there was a move to get rid of incandescent bulbs. It was stopped from going forward even though BO tried to revive it. Mackinac Center a think tank in Michigan just published an article on how public demand should dictate product, not government mandating what shall be allowed. Apparently, the public is not biting on the new electric vehicles, but just like the light bulb, Brandon and several states are trying to ban the internal combustion engine. We ignored the light bulb, now will gas powered vehicles be next?
I told my husband if we would just stop buying their electric crap then they’d stop making the electric crap. Nope. All the manufacturers are calling the shots and they are ALL on the same page. So they make everything electric so we have nothing left to purchase but their electric crap! Takes the air out of the sail on supply and demand. Now it becomes, you vill buy vat ve say or off vith your head.
Not to mention, everything you buy for your home that’s electronic… is totally un fixable now… repairman comes and the tech is such that it’s not fixable (probably intentionally)… repairman says- too costly to fix, based on age, yadda, yadda… that’ll be a $200 service call -for nothing. Buy a new one.
In the era of recycling mania and green initiatives… we live in a throw away society now… oh the irony!!
Yes. They want to mandate us into electric cars and plan to. Even though in our state we were warned last winter rolling blackouts were likely, due to a shortage of electricity!!!! 🤯 that makes sense… right??!
Our government is full of constant inconsistencies
We are living in a nanny state… and can’t have incandescent light
And those that want to should feel free to shoot up with a month worth’s of illegal drugs in the streets of San Francisco- free to kill yourself in the streets!
They are illegal to sell. They are not illegal to possess or use in a home (at least in Ohio, who knows about Commiefornia), not sure about businesses. LED bulbs destroy vision over time and their fast flashing can't be good for our minds. Don't believe they do? Get a digital SLR camera, set it for 1/2000 second and take photos of your local Christmas lights. Half of them will be out in some of the photos.
I've always hated looking at them b/c I felt they burned an afterimage longer than 'regular' lights.
When I taught--you know, before I had to leave bc mandates--one of my best students wrote a paper on why Incandescent theatre lighting was better than LEDs, which the industry was transitioning to. While most of the other students wanted to write generic cLiMatE cHAngE iS sO BaAdD!!!! papers, this one actually used her brain and personal interests to think analytically and creatively about her world. My hope is she was enough of an independent thinker to avoid all the hysteria re plandemic, but since she transferred to a better school I don't know.
I found some in a thrift shop this week. Big basket of loose bulbs at 25 cents each. I assume they may have been used but the ones I bought still worked.
Same thing they are doing to our gas powered tools and lawn mowers. It’s disgusting to try and go buy a gas powered anything and it’s hard to find them anymore. Ya gotta plug em all in! 😖 or charge the battery 10 times to mow your lawn! My neighbor told me that’s what he has to do. So he bought an old time push mower like the Amish use and that’s how he mows the front. 🤦🏼♀️ In Florida! In the heat and humidity of summer! 😡 Beyond ridiculous! It’s infuriating.
My husband doesn't want me doing the mowing because if he does it, that's one day less at the gym. And gettingsunlight to boot. From my perspective, he gets it done in under 2 hr with gas push-mower; it takes me much longer. And I do the 'strimming' which requires some considerable exercise of muscles--didn't have time for this when I was mower-in-chief
Oh I know it. I’m simply showing that with all the manufacturers in bed together with this crap we have no choice but to do it their way or find an alternative such as that. But what if you can’t? See how they sell their garbage and can say everybody wants this? Demand is high. Nope. It’s not. But they backed us in to a corner and we have no choice.
They are manipulating supply and demand.
With all the products. Electric cars? More manipulation of supply and demand. Force us to buy them because there I’ll be no other option.
Don’t get me started about the absurdity of electric cars. All these people crying about child labor better look at the sources of the car battery components….. among other evils of these cars. And the environmental damage of the way those battery minerals are being mined. 😡

Climate change activists just want to pass the torch, so to speak.
Yes passing the torch onto the dry tinder 😑
Law Enforcement wont take too kindling to that.
I'm not too sure about that...so many have been fired.
😆
This wins the internet for me this week! 🤣👍🏻
I wrote yesterday that starting fires created job security... for firefighters. I guess it has lovely other benefits as well.
Money for many different industries. I worked food service at a firecamp in California somewhere north east of Ridgecrest in 2000 I think it was. We were serving $25 per plate, dinners every night,,,charged to the state,,,even to the convicts got the same food.
Wow, $25 back then? Crazy!
🙄
Also, the price of raw wood is way down and has been for some time (price of lumber is up because the saw mills can't keep up with the demand -- so that's another economic story.) Burn the trees, the price of raw wood goes up (for those who still have trees to sell.) Sounds like a plan.
I don't know why "they" pay for arson since they have the technology to do it themselves.
For instance, I find it suspect and unscientific that many CA blazing fires never touched the trees next to the incinerated houses. DEW?
Whatever happened to the Georgia Guidestones that were struck by something, immediatedly cleaned up, and never heard from again?
So weird... When things are not explained or examined rationally, then there is conspiracy.
Wow! So shocked to see the WSJ run a story like this. Of course, it's Op-Ed, so "its an opinion," but it's the truth in plain sight!

You are generous of mind. Wouldn't be surprised if AI had been sneaking up to your keyboard.
The Canadian “wildfires “ all happened simultaneously …explain how that happens other than deliberate arson ?
The alarmies in my area tried to get everyone to stay inside and lockdown. Yeah. Not happening. We went out and enjoyed life. Screw them.
Right??? Lol. Agree. Just like venturing over the yellow tape around a park during the coof pandemic. I am like..."What are they going to do, arrest me??" Haha. I will take their recommendations and raise it with a huge UP THEIRS.
💯
Exactly. I’ve noticed the globalists can only handle one issue at a time. Black Lives Matter, then trans, then wildfires, etc. their efforts seem to go in a few directions all at once then shift to the next set of aims.
It’s all intentional distractions.
Nailed it!
I can hear the wailing of triggered snowflakes ❄️ 🤣. Not to mention the rising sea levels caused by all their melting. 😅 Whew! I find this hilarious and I do everything I can to make sure the alarmies trigger.
Tell the 'alarmies' (love that!) to stop with the crying because it is causing rising sea levels.
Right!!!!

Right? 😕

Why do you say, O Jacob, and assert, O Israel,
“My way is hidden from the Lord,
And the justice due me escapes the notice of my God”?
Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth
Does not become weary or tired.
His understanding is inscrutable.
He gives strength to the weary,
And to him who lacks might He increases power.
Though youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous young men stumble badly,
Yet those who wait for the Lord
Will gain new strength;
They will mount up with wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.
— Isaiah 40:27-31 NASB1995
Beautiful choice, Janice.
R. (8a) The Lord is kind and merciful.
The LORD secures justice
and the rights of all the oppressed.
He has made known his ways to Moses,
and his deeds to the children of Israel.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful.
Merciful and gracious is the LORD,
slow to anger and abounding in kindness.
He will not always chide,
nor does he keep his wrath forever.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful.
Not according to our sins does he deal with us,
nor does he requite us according to our crimes.
For as the heavens are high above the earth,
so surpassing is his kindness toward those who fear him.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful.
As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he put our transgressions from us.
As a father has compassion on his children,
so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him.
R. The Lord is kind and merciful.
“The Lord is kind and merciful.
As far as the east is from the west,
so far has he put our transgressions from us.”

I tarried on that one before landing at the end. The one you shared has long been a favorite. Isaiah is very powerful and lyrical.
Gosh, I love the words of Isaiah.
I though this was Psalm 103
When I read the last part of that scripture, I hear it being sung by the football player in “Remember the Titans,” the one they called Preacher, I think 😏 Thanks for sharing such powerful encouragement every day, Janice!
I thought the same thing!
I needed that. Thank you.

That also crossed my mind, Trudy. Certainly a new layer to the passage we wouldn't have noticed 3 years ago.
A favorite, thank you.
Psst...I have some incandescent light bulbs to sell.
Can meet you on the corner of "Walk" and "Don't Walk" to discuss price.
Must do after sunset.
1 August 2023 they are now illegal.
For reals? What insanity is this? I wish I was a lawyer/legal person and could file an injunction! Those LED and other non-incandescent bulbs are full of toxic substances and radiate noxious light spectrums! The harms vastly outweigh any benefit! The nanny state should F off!
LED lights can have a negative health impact The light is also harsh and abrasive in comparison to incandescent. There is no legitimate reason to ban these.
Only one reason I can think of - government overreach.
.......NOT suggesting ' legitimate ' , by the way.
And can keep you up at night if you use it to read a book. 😣
Has anybody had the nerve to crack one open and see what is inside the 'made in China' bulb that costs 3x as much as the incandescent?
Not about anything other than “control.”
My daughter works as zookeeper, mostly with reptiles and amphibians (and she loves them all). Incandescent lights are a mainstay for zoos because they are a heat and light source. These cold blooded animals need to have warmth to survive. With the incandescent bulbs being banned they must now purchase "reptile branded products." Which means much, much more expensive.
Same for those who keep chickens and use an incandescent light for warmth. Nothing but b.s. government overreach.... again.
It's true..

Yup

You took the words right out of my brain
I use those appliance lights too for some places I want low or mood lighting.
I wondered if specific bulbs would be exempted from the LED requirement. I recently bought some LED for my ceiling can lights and they didn’t work! The only reason I bought them is because they were all they had at Lowe’s. I’m sure they had quit carrying incandescent since they wouldn’t be able to sell them. But I had to return the LEDs and order incandescent online. I hope I don’t have to replace my fixtures when I run of of my stock!
Where do you buy incandescants though? So far I still have supply on hand
I went looking for the heck of it - so far (today) they are on Amazon... which I hate. Also eBay. You can buy all sorts of fun stuff from India on eBay and I'm betting incandescents will be sold as 'collectors items'.
Yes, for a premium price!

I put some LED lights in my bathroom and they were flickering like crazy.
Compared it to some form of torture like they probably have at Gitmo.
Changed them right quick back to incandescent.
Where did you get them? i have looked everywhere for incandescent bulbs and am unable to find them anywhere.
I found some in a thrift shop this week. Big basket of loose bulbs at 25 cents each. I assume they may have been used but the ones I bought still worked.
Scads of incandescent bulbs are available on eBay, from independent sellers.
eBay, definitely.
1000 Bulbs?
No, they're an "official" retail outlet. Shop where indies sell: eBay.
I have quite a few 100watt!! I’m certain those will be worth big money soon 🤣🤣
So jealous! Good for you, you will preserve your eyesight AND have a nice side-hustle...
The LEDs are probably a CIA plot to hasten losing our eyesight.
Oh 100%.
Isn't that one of Elon's big "for the good of humanity" push with his invasive techs? To cure blindness?
LOL
Or drive us nuts. LEDs flicker very quickly... something that has never occured in nature.
Same thing they are doing to our gas powered tools and lawn mowers. It’s disgusting to try and go buy a gas powered anything and it’s hard to find them anymore.

I guess the only good thing about a push mower is that he doesn't have to go to the gym to get exercise after doing the lawn.
Exactly! He’s on to something. Except during the summer months. 🤦🏼♀️
My husband doesn't want me doing the mowing because if he does it, that's one day less at the gym. And gettingsunlight to boot. From my perspective, he gets it done in under 2 hr with gas push-mower; it takes me much longer.

There's much to be said for that.
'If the only time you walk on your lawn is to mow it,
you should not have a lawn.'
Also those batteries catch on fire!
Unfortunately some people have health conditions that will preclude them using a push mower. 😥
Oh I know it. I’m simply showing that with all the manufacturers in bed together with this crap we have no choice but to do it their way or find an alternative such as that. But what if you can’t?

I've been stocking up on incandescent bulbs for years and hope that my stash will last a good while.
