In 2018, in the wake of a massive fire in Northern California, President Donald Trump said that land management has been a contributing factor to the blazes.
As Jarrett Stepman wrote in 2018, misguided land management has been a huge reason for the uptick in large fires in California.
Another year, another set of deadly fires burning up California.
President Donald Trump took to Twitter to blast poor land management as a cause of the continual fires.
Former California Assemblyman Chuck DeVore, who now lives in Texas, explained how land management has changed dramatically in the last century and why it's contributing to the increase in large fires.
Not only have poor policies made land management more difficult for the government, according to DeVore, but they've decimated the value of the land to the point that private operators have no incentive to promote an active, healthy land management.
While new challenges have arisen as California and other states grow in population, it's inexcusable to say that we can't do as good a job at land management as Americans did a century ago or Native Americans did centuries ago.
