Amps Controlled burning of the land DOES have its usesā¦.especially here in California, where it can prevent wildfires from going completely off the rails. By burning old growth/dry tinder, it helps to keep the fires from spreading.
In other areas, controlled burns also help replenish the soil. In the midwest, when a field has been overworked/overgrazed, farmers will do a controlled burn as well, so that when new growth does come in, itās healthier and stronger.

Controlled burns were a part of Californiaās ecology for centuries. But then people decided they wanted fancy houses in the forest and didnāt want to deal with smokey air for a week or so. Now we get infernos. Yay! September, if not sooner, is going to be shit this year, Kels.
jonattonyeah Ughā¦.I know
Not looking forward to that at all. It wasnāt as bad here in the south last year, but I donāt have high hopes for this year. Weāve already seen a number of fires.

Yeah, thats what he is talking about, burning for better grazing, and it can fuck off. So much of Britain is a mono culture due to sheep grazing and grouse moors, itās crap.

I think youāll find the GREAT BRITISH countryside is the most beautiful in the world Amps.
Looks like the Republicans have this climate shizzle surrounded.

I spent an inordinate amount of time reading about what would happen if we blew the moon up (just for hilarity). It wouldnāt end well so I doubt moving it around would do much good either.

Didnāt your lot want to nuke it back in the 50s? Then again, you talked about invading Britain days after VE day, so, yeah, you probably did want to nuke something

I donāt consider anything before 1993 to be my responsibility when it comes to America. I was lowering your collective intelligence from 1981-1992.
