Global wildfire acreages are down 25% since the year 2000. Leaders need to stop blaming wildfires on climate change and start doing what we do best: wildfire prevention and preparedness. We know how to prevent wildfires with forest management, controlled burns and putting out manmade fires. Those actions have nothing to do with lowering our carbon emissions and could start tomorrow! Next time someone blames wildfires on climate change show them this video.

ELON: MOUNTAINS OF REGULATIONS HELP FUEL CALIFORNIA WILDFIRES "We need to eliminate excessive regulations that prevent progress. Take California wildfires—obvious solutions like fire breaks, clearing brush, and filling reservoirs are blocked by environmental rulings. These rules protect obscure creatures but leave homes and communities at risk. It’s time to prioritize common sense." Source: Elon Musk CES Mark Penn

Meme of the day! Robots on American streets are being controlled by operators from India In Atlanta, police officers encountered one of these machines in the evening: the robot dog spoke to them in English with an Indian accent and explained that it was “at work” and monitoring order. Such robots are used by security companies for patrols.

A communist's explanation for the Canadian wildfires: "It is the direct result of climate change, and climate change has been caused by capitalism." She admits controlled burns work, but somehow blames developers building homes instead of the liberal government that refuses proper forest management. You can’t make this up.

Everything is connected to the Geophysical Event: the reusable rockets, the development of A.I. and robots, the city on the Moon, the current wars for resources, etc. The reusable rockets were developed so they can come back to Earth after the event. The A.I. is being developed and trained by you so it can capture the entire body of human knowledge. The robots will be their workers. Some will go into underground bunkers, but the safest bet for them is the Moon.

More than 100 million people nationwide have been under air quality alerts due to smoke from Canadian wildfires. This is not just an inconvenience. This smoke has impacts on the health and well-being of individuals and families. That’s why I’m introducing a resolution calling for greater action from the Canadian government to prevent and fight wildfires. With more than 3,640 wildfires in Canada this year alone, it’s clear that more action needs to be taken to prevent and stop these fires.

Researchers at RAI Institute developed the Koala gripper to help robots handle tools and objects more naturally. The system includes a handheld version for humans and a motorized version for robots, both using the same design and sensors. By learning from human demonstrations recorded with cameras and force sensors, robots can repeat the same tasks using the Koala gripper.

Hundreds of goats have been deployed in Spain's Catalonia region to help tackle forest fires. The pilot scheme in the city of Mataro - part funded by the EU - involves taking the goats to graze on flammable undergrowth like thistles and brush - creating natural firebreaks.
