I think that the fires in California should end soon. Kids that go to schools in California where the fires are burning should move somewhere else to go to school.
I would take my pets because I love them, and some of my clothes that would be helpful in the current climate to either stay warm (fall, winter) or to stay cool (spring, summer).
If I had to leave my house do to a fire I would bring picture, some clothes, some food, and blankets and pillows. I would bring my pictures because then if everything gets burned down then I would still have pictures to look at. I would bring clothes because then I wouldn't have to buy a lot of clothes later. I would bring clothes because then if all of my money burned then I wouldn't have to worry about being hungry for a while. I would bring blankest and pillows because then I could keep warm and if I had to sleep outside then I would have something to put my head on.
I think the government and fire departments from neighboring states should help put out the fires, or at least some of them. Lots of people are homeless right now, or not able to attend school because of the fires, it's becoming a large issue.
It kills all thye animals in the forest and some humans and it burns peoples homes so they could move some where else Iwould move some where else or help put out the fires
I think the fires should be put out pretty soon.It costing California alot of money like over a billion dollars. A lot of people had to evacuate out of there homes because of the fires
I think it would be horrible to have to leave your house and take only the most important things with you. I couldn't imagine if what it would be like.
I think it is very bad what is happening. Many people have been forced out of their homes and have no where to live. It has also done a lot of damage towards everything! It has destroyed like 1 billion dollors and probbaly more. It has destroyed the forests that the animals used to live in. And without a hom ethey will die! The fires have destroyed most of the animals ecomanys and the people's to. I really wonder how the fires were started in the first place anyway. If it was started on purpose the person that did the or people taht did it should really get punished for what they did.It was really wrong and has done so much damage to earth that there life should be token! They should if you think of it because ,lets say at the end the fire destroyed 1.5 billion dollars in houses and stuff. Also if it did destroy like * ALOt* (i dont know how much) they should be killed! For what they did and what they are its a reasonable punishment. If the fire was not purpasly made and lightning did it or some natural cause....WE would have the kill LIGHTNING....no not really... but we need a new thing that can put out fire way easier than water or the fre retardent stuff.. IF we had better stuff to extinguish the fire this wouldnt have been such a big fire and we could have stopped it when it was only one fire and not like 12 like it is now.We should event or all the scientist should try to even some new thing that is not bad for the eviroment and is able to extinguish fire mor easily then water.. because one day the water will be gone and we wouldnt have anyting that would be able to put out fires which was a studdy source of extinguishers.. IF we did all those things i said the world and the fires within will be helped

If I were in a wildfire, in California, and try to escape from my house, these are the materials I would bring with me: 1. clothing 2. backpack 3. extra shoes 4. money/allowance. I would bring these items with me because they are important if something happened and I would need them for either calling someone like the fire station or a good friend of my parents. Clothing are also important because without them you would have to wear materials from things that are around me and my old clothing would stink. They would also keep me warm during cold or, like my parents say, "dark" places/times, my backpack can carry my things that I would pack, extra shoes will be in good use if my other shoes would either be torn from the fire, and money or my allowance will let me call someone and I would have something to pay or buy food and other materials if I needed them.
I think that the wildfires in California are CRAZY!!!!! I think that the costs on damages in one county are about 1 billion dollars. I agree with Brandon's posts.
I would only bring my most important thing. I would also bring food, water, clothes, personal possessions and my pets and family. I would not be able to leave without my family and alerting my friends and loved one.
I would grab some of my clothes, a flashlight, water, food, my animals(2 cats and a dog), and my favorite personal possessions. I would grab these things so that I could survive, and so that I would know I had at least some of my things with me and that they weren't getting burned. I would also grab these things because they are some of the things I like and would want to have with me.
I agree with Brandon if the fire was caused by arson, they should get punished. There is seriously no reason to put everyone and everything in so much danger and pain. But I do have to point this, the water isn't going to be gone... it's a renewable resource. The natural cycle is not going to stop because of we used some to put out the fires.
I think that the fires in California was really scary and i would not want to be in that state right now because everyone that was there when the fires were there they lost everything in there house and i would feel really sad and i would not like everything to be burned and lost.
Also i think that the people that were done there when it happened they should get lots of help because if that happened to me then i would went some help like a new house,money,clothes etc)
I think that i would feel really sad and wouldnt know what to bring because i have a lot clothes and lots of things so i wouldnt know what to bring. The things that i would bring are a huge bag with clothes, my cell phone charger, shoes, and some food. I would be really sad
