You can thank the enviro-nazis for causing these fires. Until you manage the forests they will continue to burn.
Pray for America
In the next breath the guy giving the news conference said they are stopping this practice and looking for an alternative due to environmental impacts. What!? Oh, I see. This made far too much sense, so obviously the enviro-whackos want it stopped, so they can b*tch and moan about the destruction and get more money under their control for regeneration etc. Can't have the forest springing back all on it's own quickly after a fire!
Drove by a place that had a grass fire about this time last year. Can't see even a hint of demarcation where it stopped. Bugger off enviro-whackos!
