That may be true. However, it seems that the fires in Maui and Paradise, California (and elsewhere) curiously managed to leave much of the grass, swimming pools, trees, shrubs, blue plastic recycling containers, playground equipment, etc., untouched while homes and vehicles within feet of the trees were melted by 2,500 F + temperatures.
Thus, I would assume they are using Lasers calibrated specifically to protect the landscaping while destroying only the buildings and vehicles and would go with that.
The problem I also have with that is what we keep finding out that many of those photos turn out to not even be from Maui. For example the "Oprah's house with a blue roof" turned out to not even be her house, her house on Maui doesn't have a blue roof and is miles away from the fires.
Fair enough. There are for sure some trolls posting fake stuff. For me though, I'm only talking about what I've seen from uploaded videos of the Maui fires.
Have you watched the ones posted by Eric from Hawaii Real Estate? He's the guy that's been doing drone videos and walking or riding his motorbike all over Lahaina with his kids to film the devastation. His videos are in 4k and if you watch them on a large monitor you can see a lot of small details.
In these videos I saw unburnt blue things that stood out. I made note of all of them that I could find including saving a screen shot of each. Here are some examples you can see for yourself if you watch the videos:
The blue paper travel brochure laying in the midst of the ashes, unburnt.
The stack of neatly folded and unscathed blue T-shirts on the ground of a burned down store.
Numerous blue cars standing unscathed amidst the burned down carcasses of other melted vehicles.
The tall, blue ceramic planter pot standing next to an incinerated building
A blue-green metal sign on a pole in front of a burned down condo complex
The 4 blue canvas patio umbrellas in front of a burned down restaurant
Multiple mint blue painted houses and commercial buildings untouched while nearby everything is destroyed
Many bright blue-green large metal trash dumpsters standing untouched here and there all over the burned out areas.
A red tiled house with a blue car in the driveway and blue-green painted balcony, blue-green painted AC and blue-green painted gates was left as the only home standing, untouched with a straight burn line that came up to its property line and stopped, leaving the house, its yard and its car free from damage.
2 large commercial buildings with medium blue metal roofs untouched while all other buildings around them were destroyed
A teal blue mailbox standing in front of a burned down hedge and blackened stone fence.
A green metal utility box unburnt in front of blackened stone fence and burned down houses
A turquoise painted wood bench sitting unbothered in front of a destroyed house
A classic metallic blue mustang car found with the back half burnt with paint missing and windows blown out, but the front half untouched with tires not burnt and the blue metallic paint job still intact with a nice straight line demarcation.
An old Chevy truck painted metallic teal blue standing unscathed in a cul-de-sac with all homes around it incinerated and looking like a bomb went off
A parking lot with 5 large (8 ft long?) bright green-blue metal bins or storage containers unburnt while the buildings next to them were left a pile of white ash
These were my personal observations. You will have to decide for yourself what you think.
