Maybe a suit of these groups is in order?

You know, just to recover damages caused by their lawsuits!

They already p;ace themselves into all too many areas that are in direct conflict with their 501c3 status.

Seems the laws of the USA really are meaningless.

Are these fires in the same area where the enviromentalists fought the Federal and State governments to keep from clearing dead brush because it might endanger the Spotted Church Mouse? I wonder how many of those little mice got vaporized in the fire? Perhaps environmentalists can sue other environmentalists for the devastation of the fire.

And they’ll happily do the same thing again as soon as they get the opportunity.

Truly, they are insane.

Funny you should mention that, OBQuiet. The same thing happened in Montana and Idaho. Environmental groups blocked the clearing of hundreds of square miles of dead trees damaged by bark beetles (think dead gray forest as far as the eye can see). These trees would have been turned into useful lumber. Instead, this summer’s fires not only burned the dead trees, but a huge amount of adjacent live forest. The smoke was so bad it was clearly visible on weather satellite photos for nearly two months, and covered most of western MT and Central ID.

And now those fires are releasing Millions(Billions?) of tons of carbon into the atmosphere.

When will we see a headline: Environmentalists cause Global Warming!
