Back on T_D there was a post about how claiming that "recent wildfires were setting records" was b.s.
As recently as October 2020 the data on this website used to go back to around the 1940s, but they have since removed everything before 1983- https://www.nifc.gov/fire-information/statistics/wildfires
I know it was that link since I shared it with a friend. The wayback machine doesn't have an archive of it.
If you have a copy of the data I would appreciate it.
How this relates to President Trump is the claims about needing to manage forests to keep them from burning was perfectly proven in that data. And also it shows how California sucks.
