For my 5th news blog, I chose to read about the California wildfires. So far the fires have destroyed 1,500 homes and damaged hundreds more. Financial analysts and insurance experts are estimating that the damages done by the fires will cost about 1 billion dollars. I think that we as a country need to start doing more to stop these kinds of things from happening. The fires in California as well as around the world are a result of global warming. Forests are drying out because of the heat that it is causing, and therefore are easier to burn. This says a lot about where our country is heading. If we don't do something soon, the world is going to run out of natural resources. Every day more and more forest is destroyed, oil is consumed, ice is melting, air is polluted..... If we want to stay on this planet..we need to find out a new way to slow global warming.
Fires’ Cost to Insurers Is in Range of $1 Billion
