That we have made progress 'over here' doesn't discount the risk 'over there'.
Also, the advantages of 'farming tech' may not be of the same scale as 'climate change'.
Specifically 'forest fires' are a pop culture issue, we're not ever going to be threatened by them.
Regular temperature increases will likely yield 'systematic problems' that go far, far beyond 'possibly more fires' but the issues is different because of the 'risk profile' and the 'existential' nature of climate change. It's not like 'a chemical in some food products' we can get rid of. It's an issue that affects 'everything' with potential catastrophic outcomes at the riskier end of the scale.
All of that said I would much more prefer 'Mr. Face' Governor to be investing more heavily in solutions rather than just happy legislation.
Newsom+California bureaucracy is an inefficient, bloated mess, Cali could save itself 2x more quickly if they did their jobs well.
