This is absurd- fire is part of the ecology and the main reason wildfires are so devastating is that there aren’t enough of them- instead of a few small fires every season, fuel is allowed to build up until a firestorm is ignited. Controlled burning is just running the natural process in a more predictable manner.
In other words: Liberals still haven't learned their lesson.
It would seem that a firestorm is VASTLY more destructive to the biodiversity of an area than the much smaller, control-burn intentionally set blazes that are restricted in scope and time, which gives the vulnerable biological specimens opportunity to escape to an adjacent area that is NOT burning, an escape that is not available during a massive firefront.
What is counterintuitive about that?
Peter Garrett...how can you speak while people are squirming
Peter Garrett....how can you sleep while Australia’s burning...
Just another Environmental-Nazi....now with the blood of many humans, and animals, on their hands
Human lives and property must take a back seat to the worship of the earth.
