FACT: CalFIRE’s budget has nearly doubled since 2019 ($2 Billion to $3.8 Billion)-自 2019 年以来,CalFIRE 的人员数量几乎翻了一番(从 5829 人增至 10741 人)
LIE – These Wildfires are Caused by California’s Mismanagement of Forest Lands -谎言——这些野火是由加州对林地的管理不善造成的
FACT: The budget for managing the forest (AKA “raking the forest”) is now TEN TIMES larger than it was when the Governor Newsom took office. It was a $200 million annual budget in 2018. The state has now invested $2 billion, in addition to the $200 million annually.-现在用于管理森林(又称“清理森林”)的预算是州长纽森上任时的十倍。2018 年的年度预算为 2 亿美元。除了每年 2 亿美元外,该州现在还投资了 20 亿美元。
FACT: California dramatically ramped up state work to increase wildland and forest resilience, as well as adding unprecedented resources to support wildfire response. California officials treated more than 700,000 acres of land for wildfire resilience in 2023, and prescribed fires more than doubled between 2021 and 2023.-加州大幅加强了州政府的工作,以提高荒地和森林的恢复力,并增加了前所未有的资源来支持野火应对。 2023 年,加州官员对超过 70 万英亩的土地进行了处理,以应对野火,2021 年至 2023 年间,火灾发生率增加了一倍多。
LIE – Governor Newsom is working with developers to change zoning in burned areas to allow “mass apartments” -谎言——州长纽森正在与开发商合作,改变被烧毁地区的分区,以允许建造“大型公寓”
LIE – California’s smelt fish policy led to the Southern California wildfires -谎言--加州的胡瓜鱼政策导致了南加州的野火
This is an outlandish connection to make. The policy is not about water availability in Southern California.-这种联系太离谱了。该政策与南加州的水供应无关。
Broadly, there is no water shortage in Southern California right now, despite Trump’s claims that he would open some imaginary spigot.-南加州目前并不缺水,尽管特朗普声称他将打开某个假想的水龙头。。。
Orange County Water District, which supplies groundwater to the north half of the county, has enough supply to carry its 2.5 million customers through the worst of any potential droughts for 3 to 5 years.-奥兰治县水务局为该县北半部提供地下水,其供水量足以让 250 万客户度过 3 至 5 年内可能出现的最严重干旱。
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California also has an abundance, with a record 3.8 million acre-feet of water in storage. That’s enough water to supply 40 million people for a year.-南加州大都会水务区也水源充足,储水量达到创纪录的 380 万英亩英尺。这些水足以为 4000 万人提供一年的水。
LIE – California Ran Out of Water and Reservoirs Are Empty-谎言——加州缺水,水库空了
Facts About Water Availability-关于水资源可用性的事实
FACT: Water reservoirs in Southern California are at record levels. There is no shortage of water in Southern California.-南加州的水库水量达到创纪录的水平。南加州并不缺水。
FACT: Wildland firefighters don’t use hydrants — they use water tenders. And that is what has been used to ensure continued water access. Three million gallons of water were stored in three large tanks for fire hydrants in the area before the Palisades fire, but the supply was exhausted because of the extraordinary nature of this hurricane-force firestorm. -野外消防员不使用消防栓,而是使用供水车。这也是确保持续供水的方法。在帕利塞德大火之前,该地区消防栓的三个大型水箱中储存了三百万加仑的水,但由于这场飓风级大火的特殊性,水源已经耗尽。
FACT: The Governor has called for an independent investigation into the loss of water pressure to local fire hydrants and the reported unavailability of water supplies from the Santa Ynez Reservoir. While urban water systems are built for structure fires and fire suppression, not hurricane-force firestorms, it is important to understand what happened so we can be better prepared in the future.-州长已要求对当地消防栓的水压损失以及圣塔伊内兹水库供水中断的报道进行独立调查。虽然城市供水系统是为结构性火灾和灭火而建造的,而不是为飓风级别的暴风雪而建造的,但了解发生了什么事非常重要,这样我们就能在未来做好更好的准备。
FACT: There is no water shortage in Southern California right now, despite Trump’s claims that he would open some imaginary spigot.-尽管特朗普声称他会打开一些假想的水龙头,但南加州目前并不缺水。
Orange County Water District, which supplies groundwater to the north half of the county, has enough supply to carry its 2.5 million customers through the worst of any potential droughts for3 to 5 years.-奥兰治县水务局为该县北部提供地下水,其供水量足以让 250 万客户度过 3 至 5 年内可能出现的最严重干旱。
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California — which serves 19 million people mostly with imported water — also has an abundance, “with a record 3.8 million acre-feet of water in storage,” (1 million acres of land with water that is 3.8 feet deep) according to Interim General Manager Deven Upadhyay, who issued a statement last week. That’s enough water to supply 40 million people for a year.-南加州大都会水务区(主要通过进口水为 1900 万人提供服务)也水源充足,“储水量达到创纪录的 380 万英亩英尺”(100 万英亩土地的水深 3.8 英尺),临时总经理 Deven Upadhyay 上周发表声明称。这些水足够 4000 万人一年使用。
FACT: Reservoirs are full and water is available.-水库已满,有水可用。
LIE: 60 fire trucks from the state of Oregon are being held up in Sacramento to for “emissions testing”-谎言:60 辆来自俄勒冈州的消防车被扣留在萨克拉门托进行“排放测试”
FACT: out-of-state fire trucks take part in. 15 minute safety & equipment inspection to ensure no issues with the vehicle. At the time of the original post, the Oregon firefighting teams were already in the Los Angeles area battling the blazes.-外州的消防车参加。15 分钟的安全和设备检查,以确保车辆没有问题。在原帖发布时,俄勒冈州的消防队已经在洛杉矶地区与大火搏斗。
