PG&E power shutdown begins in California amid threat of 'explosive' wildfires, affecting millions

Perhaps you should head back to the mountain?

 

Yeh, our power lines take 80 mph no problem. Unless combined with an ice storm. I don’t think CA is dealing with that...

 

Apparently Americans could learn something from Puerto Ricans. My advice remains the same though.

 

SCE has cut off the electrical power to the entire mountain.

 

Im sorry my humor offended you. I live in Los Angeles, so I am used to socialists and snowflakes. If it makes you feel better, my power is out as well!

 

My power wasn't cut off. Hope you had stocked up on dry food!

 

I have family and friends in NorCal bitching and moaning about their power being cut off. I have told them they are the Beta Testers for the Green New Deal. I ask them now how they feel about clearing the underbrush and growth. They don't like to answer that question, it's just "Evil PG&E". But, they are heavily government regulated. They are not allowed to do much of the solutions that would stop these disastrous fires, yet held completely responsible.

California / Democrats are 100% to blame for it. It's not even a question.

With the heavily regulated utilities and insane push to "renewables", before their time, along with the shut down of our Nuclear Plants (zero carbon emissions), Democrats have forced our utilities to spend $ on "renewables" and not on other strategies to mitigate any runaway fires while providing clean energy. We could have:

• Cleared the underbrush. We didn't learn after the Lake Arrowhead Fire (Democrats fault too.)
• Clear cut on a rotating basis to create fire breaks.
• Used the helicopter saw method to clear all around power lines.
• Invest in modular nuclear power instead of the "Bullet Train". (No meltdown potential, 100% safe, localized with no power lines through forests, and uses all the spent nuclear waste from old nuclear plants - hundreds of years of fuel sitting there. Bill Gates Foundation is 100% in on this solution.)

The Leftists stopped all of these solutions from happening in California. Didn't allow the power companies to spend on them, and want to blame the power companies? What a joke.

Now Californians are the Beta Testers for the Green New Deal. No power... that's how it will be you idiots. I live near the beach with no issues. But, I have also set up my house to run off a generator that I can turn on at anytime running on natural gas. Enjoy your ideology Lefties. This is the result.

 

it is not the green new deal, they are living off the land trading and bartering for goods and services.
