I’m in Aus. Bushfires nothing new here. But the big dry here and big heat all the time is making the bushfire season much worse. It was a smidge over 120 in western Sydney yesterday.
Thanks for your reply! The pics of what you guys are going through (I am in No California and one of my brother’s houses was wiped out in the crazy 2017 fires we had here, along with plenty of my belongings which were stored in his barn bldg) are just heart wrenching.
Is or has there been there any kind of organization there that has spoken out about clearing brush, or clearing fire-control swathes through brushland as a fire-preventative measure? Or controlled-burn activity? Surely there must be folks there that understand fire season and the severe drought and etc; etc and I’m just asking has there been anyone actually doing more than making alarm noises? If even those?
Yes, surely it would be a huge task given the vast area(s) involved. On the other hand it’s not like it’s rocket science to run bulldozers over generally flat land and cut the brush to the ground when the threat is so obvious. But this is what man does: Nobody gives a crap until *after* the disaster.
