From a Wildland firefighter in Colorado: “I have family on Maui (Haiku). This is a disgrace. 20 firefighters including myself have offered multiple times a day to fly to Maui at our own expense to help contain the other fires and assist in recovery. We have been rebuffed by Maui leaders each time who continually tell us: “it’s all under control”. I was on the scene at the Marshall fire in Boulder County and it took us less than 30 hours to search for bodies in 1100 homes that were burned. Only 2 people died in that fire. Hawaii has been warned for years about this. They’ve ignored it. Absolutely disgusting.”

Wildfire was a low priority threat with tsunami and hurricane at the top of the list. No doubt something should have been done earlier but what? Beside beefing up powerlines, the only thing I can think of was to create a very wide cleared buffer area inland of Lahaina 2-4 miles long and at least a mile or two wide, but that would have cost millions that could have been spent on other things. Keeping it free of weeds/grass would have been a huge cost. That would also have caused a scar on the land sure to bring much criticism. Green belt not feasible as that requires lots of water. Btw, wildfire embers in high wind travel 2+ miles and start fires. It will be interesting to see what is done when Lahaina is rebuilt. Very tough issues facing Maui. Hindsight is usually 100% 20-20 vision.

[@whotakesallmynames]

​@@Chainyanker007One of the things that they're learning from this fire is that the amount of space you need around the structure to prevent it from catching fire is much smaller than we thought. A 5 ft buffer around the house with the red roof was drainage rocks and was free of debris (maybe the metal roof also) is what saved the red house, it wasn't able to catch fire even in the middle of all of that bc the fire wasn't able to get hot enough close enough to it. That's something that can be done on a much smaller scale that is much more affordable

They were also found guilty of starting 7 or more of the Ca 'fires' w bad transformers, (yea, right) and the dirty state FORGAVE thier charges. Know that the utility ALSO has the equipment that could be used to commit these horrific ATTAKS, but our dirtygvov has been going along w all their plans from Hell, anyway..so if our military is not directly guilty, they KNOW and are GOING ALONG w it.!

My heart goes out to the suffering! Prevention er key! Americans and Australians are now the most CO2 emitting nationals on the planet. WHY are you not transitioning to produce and use energy from renewable s!? This are just the beginning of a hellish century. For each day we do not bring down our emissions the harder consequences we will see. Through glaciology, we now have a YEAR BY YEAR knowledge of the planets atmospheric Carbon content (and much more) for a period more than 10 times longer since Homo Sapiens left the African continent the first time. For over 850.000 years our atmospheric Carbon content have been relative stable at 220 PPM. 3 times in the 850.000+ years have gigantic widespread global volcanic eruptions raised the Carbon content with 30 PPM and EACH time it have triggered longterm climate changes for a very long time before the planets regulating systems slowly have been able to bring it down to 220 PPM again. It are truth to state that a atmospheric Carbon content of 220 PPM created us and nearly all living species present on the globe with very few exceptions. Besides the Asteriod that hit Yucatan 66 million years ago the largest species extinctions we have been able to document have happened during the 3 times the atmospheric content rose with 30 PPM. Since the Industrial revolution, just a few hundred years ago, we have raised the atmospheric Carbon content from 220 PPM to now (2022 number) 417 PPM! So humans NOW have caused not a 30 PPM rise but unprecedented 197 PPM! We are right now in the largest species extinction period since the Asteriod hit Yucatan 66 million years ago! The worlds oceans are right now heating with the same energy added equalling 5 Hiroshima bombs PER SECOND! That are the sickening facts! The worlds largest ongoing transition project. The North Sea summit agreement, will transition 220 million high energy using Europeans in a decade, by off shore windmill parks. One thing are that the project will transion the 220 million people away from fossil fuel based made electricity it will also produce a larger amount of green hydrogen on average per day than the world have produced of green hydrogen to date. Green hydrogen are made of water and electricity and when burned it only emits........wait for it..........WATER! A one digit percentage of this hydrogen production will be used to produce energy when the wind does not blow and the rest will be used for cars, trucks, trains and planes. Nations like USA, Canada, Australia, Portugal have perfect conditions to make a simple copy/paste of this project NOW and thus create good jobs at home instead of in human rights abusing dictatorships. Make your own money work for YOU instead of sending them out of the nation. Very soon, it can be next year, in 5 but certainly inside 10 years that we will see several larger farming nations fail at the same time due to climate extremes. That will produce 100´s of millions climate refugees. I hope nations like USA/Australia/Canada that have massive emissions and lots of space will understand where these people will have to go! IF you want your children to live in a nation that remotely are like the one you know you NEED to change NOW! YOUR INACTION have the power to drag entire humanity down with you!

Hart told the New York Times, “You can’t fight fire when you don’t have water… Just throwing dirt on it doesn’t cut it.”

What really hits hard for me is the sound of the forced strength in their voices.

That was the most heartbreaking part of it.

I gotta ask - if the fire chief/captain knew it was time to go, why wasn't there some sort of hurry up and evacuate? The actual Fire Chief left... while others had no clue. That really angers me. I love Lahaina. History has been visually erased. I'm glad the people are doing what they need to do - because it doesn't look like tax dollars are going to help the locals. My blood boils, and my heart aches.

[@lisaspencer1057]

They did have a clue. They were under a red flag warning, the highest warning, for wild fire. There are videos of thick black smoke close to homes with flames visible and the person taking the video is saying “I think I’m ok”. What??? That’s God saying GET OUT. People need to take personal responsibility for their safety. It’s a natural disaster. (Or a crime that turned into a natural disaster). There’s no stopping wildfires. You can try to contain them and if you’re lucky you can. My heart breaks for everyone. But it’s way too early to start spreading rumors without any proof accusing people of criminal behavior. It helps no one and absolutely hurts people.

Hi Jonathan, I'm a new subscriber. Thank you for doing this mini documentary and allowing us viewers who do not live in Maui or even Hawaii get a close look at the residents who experienced this devastating fire and give them a voice to tell their story. I'm so sad for the lives of people and animals lost. I pray God cover Hawaii with His protection. I'm moved by those providing supplies and transporting whatever is needed via boat. This is remarkable and the selflessness being demonstrated is priceless. The captains that have lost their home, my heart goes out to them. I pray God replace everything that they lost in this unforgiving fire. I look forward to your part 2. God Bless you Jonathan and keep you safe while covering this tragedy. 🙏

I think the sirens should have gone off with at least a different pattern of sound part of the time.

Americans and Australians are now the most CO2 emitting nationals on the planet. WHY are you not transitioning to produce and use energy from renewable s!? This are just the beginning of a hellish century. For each day we do not bring down our emissions the harder consequences we will see. Through glaciology, we now have a YEAR BY YEAR knowledge of the planets atmospheric Carbon content (and much more) for a period more than 10 times longer since Homo Sapiens left the African continent the first time. For over 850.000 years our atmospheric Carbon content have been relative stable at 220 PPM. 3 times in the 850.000+ years have gigantic widespread global volcanic eruptions raised the Carbon content with 30 PPM and EACH time it have triggered longterm climate changes for a very long time before the planets regulating systems slowly have been able to bring it down to 220 PPM again. It are truth to state that a atmospheric Carbon content of 220 PPM created us and nearly all living species present on the globe with very few exceptions. Besides the Asteriod that hit Yucatan 66 million years ago the largest species extinctions we have been able to document have happened during the 3 times the atmospheric content rose with 30 PPM. Since the Industrial revolution, just a few hundred years ago, we have raised the atmospheric Carbon content from 220 PPM to now (2022 number) 417 PPM! So humans NOW have caused not a 30 PPM rise but unprecedented 197 PPM! We are right now in the largest species extinction period since the Asteriod hit Yucatan 66 million years ago! The worlds oceans are right now heating with the same energy added equalling 5 Hiroshima bombs PER SECOND! That are the sickening facts! The worlds largest ongoing transition project. The North Sea summit agreement, will transition 220 million high energy using Europeans in a decade, by off shore windmill parks. One thing are that the project will transion the 220 million people away from fossil fuel based made electricity it will also produce a larger amount of green hydrogen on average per day than the world have produced of green hydrogen to date. Green hydrogen are made of water and electricity and when burned it only emits........wait for it..........WATER! A one digit percentage of this hydrogen production will be used to produce energy when the wind does not blow and the rest will be used for cars, trucks, trains and planes. Nations like USA, Canada, Australia, Portugal have perfect conditions to make a simple copy/paste of this project NOW and thus create good jobs at home instead of in human rights abusing dictatorships. Make your own money work for YOU instead of sending them out of the nation. Very soon, it can be next year, in 5 but certainly inside 10 years that we will see several larger farming nations fail at the same time due to climate extremes. That will produce 100´s of millions climate refugees. I hope nations like USA/Australia/Canada that have massive emissions and lots of space will understand where these people will have to go! IF you want your children to live in a nation that remotely are like the one you know you NEED to change NOW! YOUR INACTION have the power to drag entire humanity down with you! Do not politicise science! Face reality and CHANGE! NOW, please!

Off course 1.3 billion Chinese or same number of Indians will emit more than 60 million or 300 million people. 1 Australian emits same CO2 as 12 Indians. And then consider that the imports your nations have from India/China count in their emissions not your. Furthermore aviation emissions are not included in their number. Americans fly more than anyone else per Capita! It are only in Murdoch media nations where the populations do not understand that it are the emissions per citizen that are the number that matter since each nations emissions are ultimately decided by the politics in those nations and thus the populations have all possibilities to elect politicians that will deal with the REAL issues instead of getting their Swiss bank accounts filled by the fossil fuel industry!

@@Mike-zx1kx do you no understand that there is a time and place for these discussions? Do you also not understand that switching to renewables is a very long term thing, as it’s not something that is achievable quickly. It would involve a total rework of infrastructure, and with that, a great deal of co2 output. Over the long term, co2 today is nowhere near the levels it has reached, and as an aside, should we ever reach the carbon neutral that some are pushing for, life would become untenable, for not just humans, but other animals and plants. Co2 IS what plants require to thrive, and should we continue to deprive them of it, the world would quickly become barren.

Looking at the various videos of the fires, I was shocked at the rate of the winds! No wonder the fires spread so fast and far. My family lived on Oahu from 1963-67 and as a kid there wasn't a better place to be, (we didn't realize just how poor we were). Dad was in the Coast Guard based at Pearl Harbor. Mom worked for Princess Leilani, sewing at the factory. We lived in Kaneohe and later Kahalu'u. I spoke with my mother and she remembered the weekend she and my Dad spent at Lahaina before he was shipped out for a year. We moved back to the states shortly after that. I will always cherish my memories of the people and the place I lived in. I'm praying for Hawaii and her people. I know they will be rebuilding and Paradise will once again flourish.
