Each and every occurance will have an explanation that makes sense. It happened in reality: It will have a literal cause.
The point of tying this to climate change is the trend of ever-increasing severity and commonality of storms like the one that turned a simple fire in to a disaster.
The news isn’t going to talk about the trend of increasing problems unless they can immediately scape-goat it to other topics, like “poorly maintained electricals”. Why are they poorly maintained? The government regulates the sh*t out of utilities: we COULD require it. Why are we not preparing infrastructure for a more difficult future?
The news will never tell you. They just want you to be mad at someone specific and forget who it was by the next segment. Then, you’re upset, watching, and not leaving to do anything about it because they’re only whining about small specific problems normal people have no control over.
