#Trump has a faulty understanding of CA's water system. In a time of extreme crisis, he's using this emergency to line the pockets of industrial agricultural producers in the San Joaquin Valley rather than meeting the needs of everyday Californians #RestoretheDelta mynewsla.com/government/2...

“The fires serve as a powerful reminder that Los Angeles was not built for global warming — and that surviving continued temperature increases will require us to reimagine our infrastructure, our housing, our financial systems and more.” We can’t return to business as usual.

Great reporting by @laist.com on the #LAFires. So much misinformation to combat. Water resource & wildfire management is incredibly complex. We need to come together not point blame. Experts like UCLA’s Greg Pierce highlight limitations not failures of the system. laist.com/news/climate...

While water supply wasn’t the issue with the #LAfires, it is a potent argument for doubling down on efforts to develop local, climate resilient water supplies. Increased wastewater recycling and banking stormwater would create more distributed supplies that could be tapped in emergencies.
