California is proposing to ban fires from beaches

California regulators look to curb beach bonfires, citing climate change

A tradition dating back to the 1940s -- bonfire pits on the beaches of southern California -- is being targeted by state officials who say the popular pastime is no longer acceptable because of global warming and negative health consequences

"One fire pit burning one night, a few hours, a couple bundles of wood, emits as much as one average diesel truck on the road today driving over 500 miles," said Dr. Philip Fine, of the Southern California Air Quality Management District (AQMD).

AQMD staff recommended banning open fires at the beach and removing the hundreds of concrete fire pits that stretch from San Diego to Los Angeles.

Gay Marriage is WRONG & IMMORAL!

In the county where I live they passed rules for leaf burning that are so onerous that they might as well just have banned leaf burning. They cited global warming.

Oh and if you read that bit in the OP about the bundle of wood being equivalent to a diesel truck driving 500 miles then the opposite would be true too that growing one bundle of wood would sequester as much carbon as a diesel truck driving 500 miles. Wow, planting trees is the great solution. Then when the world wakes up and everyone realizes this was one big cluster &^%$ we can harvest all those trees.

California- The Socialist state

Jesus wept! Aren't American extremists totally ignorant as well as weird? McCarthy did quite a job on what passes for the American political mind, I'm afraid. 'Socialist California', my American elbow!
