NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: 'The Five' host Judge Jeanine Pirro has seriously disapproved of "excuses" that cite climate change as the cause of the devastating Maui wildfires in Hawaii.

The cause of the deadly fires had remained a mystery for weeks as investigations continued to be inconclusive and limited due to the disaster.

Island officials were eventually able to trace the fires to mismanagement by Hawaiian Electric which led to numerous deaths and severe property damage throughout the region, Daily News reports.

Pirro objected to the focus on green energy production and the associated threat to the area from large foreseeable risks.

The Fox News resident and former judge was not happy that climate change has repeatedly become part of the conversation on Maui.

"In the winter, it's all about Covid, and in the summer, it's all about climate change," Pirro commented, "We just need to put more money into it," she added.

Pirro spoke up about the billions of dollars that have been put into the battle against global warming questioning, "If $300 billion to fight climate change [is a true statement], how come this kinda thing [Maui Fires] has happened?"

"In the end, it's not about global warming...it's about negligence," Pirro said, "It's about the ineptitude, it's about an area that didn't keep up with what was going on because they were trying to get to the 'green energy' next step," she added.

Pirro strongly suggested that the region's focus on the "next step" lead to neglect of the present and ultimately to a disaster like the Maui wildfires.

'The Five' host listed the ways in which the lives of the people of Maui were threatened by various mistakes made by the government.

"They were too busy working on green energy," Pirro said. "They ignored the obligation of the current situation. They didn't fill the water reservoir,' she bluntly added.

Pirro went on to say, "They didn't turn off the power lines when they got a warning that there would be high winds coming. And they failed the follow-up protocol to shut down the light power lines."

"We live in a world that's all about excuses that is blocked in terms of ideology," the host concluded, "You're on this side or you're on this side," she added.
