Problem with burning a rain forest is that much of the moisture in the ground leaves with the fire. Leaving it rather devestated for some time. @-5K-

Fire is a necessary part of a forests life cycle.


Source: I do forest shit.

2019-08-22 22:44:46 UTC  

depends where

2019-08-22 22:44:53 UTC  

Has there ever been a big fire in the Amazon before?

2019-08-22 22:44:57 UTC  

Everywhere.

2019-08-22 22:45:12 UTC  

abos completely fucked the makeup of australia's tree population by constantly burning shit

2019-08-22 22:45:40 UTC  

Well they're humans who were burning shit in order to hunt. That's gay

2019-08-22 22:45:53 UTC  

They're also mutants and retarded

2019-08-22 22:46:02 UTC  

both correct

2019-08-22 22:46:07 UTC  

Thankfully they're dying out <:pepe_smile:378719407977005068>

2019-08-22 22:46:19 UTC  

Say what

2019-08-22 22:46:30 UTC  

Aren't they?

2019-08-22 22:46:38 UTC  

well not really

2019-08-22 22:46:46 UTC  

there's still tons in the desert up north and out west

2019-08-22 22:46:58 UTC  

places civilized people cant bear to live

2019-08-22 22:47:23 UTC  

But the abbos couldn't even live in the places civilized people do

2019-08-22 22:47:27 UTC  

I don't really know why uncivilised tribes still exist

2019-08-22 22:47:30 UTC  

Like Tazmania

2019-08-22 22:47:36 UTC  

And I don't mean black people

2019-08-22 22:47:40 UTC  

Nope! Not everywhere. There comes a point where the trees are so large that if they burn down the water that goes to the atmosphere Will be impossible to put down into the ground again

2019-08-22 22:47:49 UTC  

Turning the area into a Savannah instead

2019-08-22 22:48:28 UTC  

The water that eas in the soil Will go to the atmosphere, But wont be able to be brought back into the soil as the main contributors to tjat, the large trees, are now gone.

2019-08-22 22:48:42 UTC  

How can a fire change the climate of an area?

2019-08-22 22:48:46 UTC  

This is not the case for european or many north african forests however.

2019-08-22 22:48:53 UTC  

It will still rain there

2019-08-22 22:49:03 UTC  

You can't turn a rainforest into a desert

2019-08-22 22:49:09 UTC  

Even if you take out the forest part

2019-08-22 22:49:13 UTC  

It will just be rain

2019-08-22 22:49:14 UTC  

Okay. Tou have many big trees. Those trees take rain and water from the atmosphere and it goes into the soil. @Deleted User

2019-08-22 22:49:22 UTC  

Now those things that put that in the soil are now gone

2019-08-22 22:49:29 UTC  

Hiw is the water gonna get to the soil?

2019-08-22 22:49:36 UTC  

Rain?

2019-08-22 22:49:48 UTC  

Only gets to the tops before they turn into gas again

2019-08-22 22:50:11 UTC  

This is how desertirication works and how Savannah are created

2019-08-22 22:50:27 UTC  

Are you saying the rain will evaporate before it hits the ground?

2019-08-22 22:50:46 UTC  

The water will just fall back down onto the soil

2019-08-22 22:50:54 UTC  

pretty sure savannahs are created by changes in rainfall bro

2019-08-22 22:51:03 UTC  

Yeah

2019-08-22 22:51:14 UTC  

the tropics get pounded with heavily rain daily most of the year

2019-08-22 22:51:14 UTC  

You can't change the climate

2019-08-22 22:51:25 UTC
