Many say climate change caused the deadly fires in Hawaii but it didn’t. What caused the fires was Hawaiian Electric’s failure to clear flammable grasses from around electric wires because its focus, and ratepayer money, was going to renewables.https://t.co/Ygf4kxamaq

Online comment:
What has happened in Maui is actually scary. Really, really scary what was done. It’s frightening. They Turned off the water. They Didn’t sound sirens. They Sent kids home alone. They prevented people from leaving! They Closed escape roads. Why won’t they let media in?
Hawaiian official M. Kaleo Manuel refused to release water in Maui as the fire raged🤬 this even made mainstream.
Manuel is deputy director of the Department of Land and Natural Resources.
Here he is explaining that water should be revered, not used:
