they are a natural process that burns away undergrowth

by putting them out the undergrowth accumulates and the fires become larger once they happen

we stoped stoping all fires years ago,

we even start them now on purpose to destroy undergrowth before it becomes a problem

oh okay, then what is the problem?

the tactics have changed fighting fires is still very needed and usefull

the problem is cutting the maitanece budget is why this kind of fire even happend

oh ok, i understand now

I think you're confusing a burn-off with an actual forest fire

it was all ready set up for a pre burn 2 years ago and never got done cause of the budget.

which greenies often *also* are against, which leads to the actual forest fire

what's going on?

Fires are fine in the long term, unlpeasant in the short term, but always cool to look at

it's not fine in the long term at all

people died hunderds of homes were destoryed

greenies lol, for people who care so much about nature and animals, they are some of the most ignorant people when it comes to actual conservation

in the heart of the oil industery

Well that shouldn't happen, I mean forest fires that don't kill people or destroy property

if you live in a hurricane zone, expect to get hit with a hurricane every now and then

I mean properly managed forest fires are fine in the long term

yes and these blazes running out of controll is cause by people in the past stoping every fire and, not having the budget to do preburns and fireline clearcuts

@Deleted User Yeah, but forest fires are preventable as if you could drain the ocean a bit before a hurricane

@flyingfoxel I think it's mostly budget right now, but I'm not an expert

i was referring mainly to idea of property getting destroyed, it is a risk you take when you decide to live in a certain area

Only you can prevent forest fires. 🐻

yes but when you pay tax to mantain the forest aorund you and it's used for trips to fucking india you get a little pissed

he has to unlock all the costumes though

^

i was about to commit to hate speach there got to be more careful

if you censor yourself, you have already lost

as the official positive space champion of this server I would advise you to keep it PC™

Trips to india
