This January marked the eighth month in a row that temperatures were the hottest on record, according to @CopernicusECMWF.

California’s 2020 in wildfires, by the numbers:
- Four million acres
- 112 million tons of greenhouse gases
- Thousands of lightning strikes
- 11 million gallons of fire retardant
- 31 lost lives bit.ly/3l4tEp4
