It is pretty funny looking but I'm betting the cause is more practical than conspiracy related. My guess is someone heard about putting aluminum foil on windows to increase energy efficiency and decided to take it a step further.

    That is an interesting article and a decent explanation but if that is what they're doing in the pic wouldn't you expect it to cover the walls as well?

    Those walls are stone and brick. The roof is probably wood shingle. The biggest danger in that situation is embers landing on the roof anyway. If the wall of fire gets to your house, the blanket might help a little , but probably not.

    Yeah I was thinking this is more some kind of insulation. Which might actually work but probably is easily damaged by weather. Youโ€™d be constantly repairing it.

    lol maybe you could wrap it really tightly in multiple layers of Saran Wrap to protect it.
