California redwood trees stressed to breaking point by drought, dying in Southern California
Koko Panossian is on death watch.

The Glendale senior park services manager gingerly steps around fresh tree stumps, ghosts of 30-year-old coast redwood trees. His eyes meet the brown, scratchy limbs of two towering gentle giants.

“You see these ones here,” he said, pointing skyward. “They are stressed. They are struggling to stay green. They are struggling to survive.”

Bright yellow caution tape tied in a bow around the trunk of another redwood flaps in the breeze, catching his eye.

“That one we will take down. It is dead,” Panossian declared.

Those rich bastards who are watering their lawns should be made to haul water by the bucketful to tend them. Seriously...skip the monetary fine and go for it.

“They’ve been around for millions of years. But this is a pretty unprecedented event in the last four or five years,” said Ted Dawson, a UC Berkeley professor studying the effects of the drought on the redwoods in their native habitat. “Some of these trees will suffer because of that.”

I thought the redwoods were in Northern California?

I was under the impression that Southern California was apache land, full of desert and Mexicans.

 Quoting: MadBob


You're looking at two separate sets of circumstances and environments - any redwoods in Glendale (as in your headliner) are not native and were planted by humans in the last century. It was an experiment that failed when the last wet cycle ended.

Mad bob, time are changing indeed. We are in the Last Days, that Jesus Christ warned us were going to come upon us in His written Word. He even addresses this drought, its before He returns to Judge the world in sin and righteousness.
I know you think your sins are way more fun than obeying the God who made you. But let me ask you this: are you sins so luscious they are worth burning for for all eternity? Your time is running out.

Oh, since you love to worship bob dylan instead of the Lord of Hosts who gave you life and will also take it from you, why dont you watch your false idol/god Bob Dylan right here and listen to him say, with absolute regret and disgust at himself, that he literally SOLD HIS SOUL TO SATAN, TO BE GIVEN SUCCESS IN THIS WORLD:

Someone please embed, if you think its time mad bob sees the truth.

God bless you mad bob. I loveyou. And Jesus loves you. JESUS LOVES YOU.

Yeah, because in millions of years California has never seen a drought like this one.

I call BS.

Drought Impacting Trees In Los Padres

KVTA News Sunday May 31, 2015



KVTA's Perry Van Houten has been checking out the impact of the drought in the Los Padres National Forest.

He has talked with officials with the U-S Forest Service and observed first hand what's going on in the Ventura County backcountry.

It will be featured in a story by Perry that will be broadcast on AM 1590 Monday morning, but here's a preview with a photo from Perry...

"Millions of trees in Southern California’s national forests—including thousands of trees in the mountains of Ventura County—are dying due to a beetle invasion brought on by the drought.

Los Padres National Forest officials said they’re seeing trees weakened by the lack of rainfall, and due to that they’re seeing increased bark beetle activity, and a lot of trees fading out and dying.

The U.S. Forest Service said it’s because of the lack of water, a tree’s main defense against the pests.

“What happens when a bark beetle attacks a healthy tree is the tree will produce sap which will then hopefully expel the beetle and keep it from getting in and attacking the tree,” forester Greg Thompson told KVTA News.

On some of the affected trees, Thompson says they’re seeing no sap production.

The Forest Service has estimated that 2-million trees have died in Southern California because of the drought. Some 12-million have perished statewide.

Areas with high tree mortality include the Mt. Pinos Ranger District along with lower elevation sites in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties."

All part of the cycle, now unless some misguided fools intervene they will burn and the next generation of giants will germinate and take their rightful place.

You should see all the 100+ year old OAKS dying in northern ILLINOIS, Chicago area. This year it is really weird. Their branches are dropping and leaves on the underside are gone.
Bare, drooping branches.
