I remember in Wisconsin back in the 70's and 80's when we had the peat bog fires under the marshes.
I have to say, that is one ugly fence, but if he's recycling tires and not spreading mosquito-borne disease I don't see a problem.
He just needs to fill the tires with dirt.
I have seen articles, etc., of entire houses built of old tires which, coincidentally, have been filled with dirt.. ( hard-packed, actually )
If those pics in #13 are the aforementioned tires, I can understand the concerns about breeding mosquitoes..
They definitely need to be filled...
The tops would make nice "planters" then..
A little added forage for the cows..
Dennis and Gerry Weaver have built a beautiful home which is environmentally friendly yet confortable to live in near Ridgway, Colorado. This type of house which uses tires, aluminum cans and other recycled materials as a part of the structure is called an Earthship.
Contact Dennis Weaver LOL

Are you into "channeling" now?
May as well try it, but he won't win.
The examples are numerous, it would quite a chore to catalog them.
Poor guy has a little problem on his hands.
I visited a steel mill in Japan in the early 90's. They would throw used tires right into their blast furnaces.
Only the old ones. The improved ones are triangles. It eliminates one thump...
that was great!

Just them ol ugly channel cats.
