Abstract

Santa Ana winds, which are characterized by their scorching, arid, and forceful surges, significantly exacerbate wildfire hazards in Southern California, extending to 23,000 ha, particularly in the Los Angeles region. The purpose of this study is to examine the correlation between anthropogenic influences and natural climatic phenomena, with a specific focus on the influence of regional energy policies on the frequency and intensity of wildfires. The interaction between the Santa Ana winds and landscapes that are becoming more flammable has become more intensive in recent decades, although they are a natural phenomenon. Inadequately regulated urban expansion, prolonged droughts, and elevated temperatures are the causes of this intensification. Utility companies explicitly link wildfire ignitions during wind events to their energy infrastructure, particularly above-ground power lines. Moreover, the crisis has been further exacerbated by inadequate utility modernization, delayed policy reforms, and limited investment in fire-resilient infrastructure. This study assesses the degree to which regulatory inertia and climate change interact to elevate the likelihood of wildfires by analyzing historical wildfire data, meteorological patterns, and the evolution of California's energy policies. In the face of escalating climatic extremes, the results underscore the urgent need for energy strategies that are forward-thinking and integrated and that prioritize environmental sustainability, conflagration prevention, and resilience.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the compliance and violation of language politeness principles in student communication to lecturers via WhatsApp. The background of this research highlights the importance of communication ethics in the academic environment, especially amidst Indonesia's cultural diversity and the dynamics of the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) program. The method used is a qualitative descriptive method with documentation techniques. The research data sources are utterances in WhatsApp messages from students of the Indonesian Language Education Study Program collected from January to June 2019. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of collection, reading, maxim identification, classification, and analysis. The results showed compliance with five of Leech's politeness maxims: tact maxim (11 data), generosity maxim (2 data), approbation maxim (2 data), agreement maxim (11 data), and sympathy maxim (2 data). Compliance is characterized by the use of greetings, apologies, self-introduction, and providing options to the interlocutor. Meanwhile, violations of politeness principles were found in the tact maxim (4 data) and the agreement maxim (1 data). Violations occurred because students gave the impression of dictating, forcing, or not providing freedom of choice to the lecturers. This study concludes that although most students have implemented politeness, a deeper understanding of speech strategies is still needed to maintain a harmonious relationship between students and lecturers.
