  1. Fire management in the red tingle forest of southwest Australia has been a hot topic for a few years now. New research from @natesanderson.bsky.social suggests that the red tingle forest should be managed differently than the nearby Karri forest, to reduce tree mortality.

  6. 📖 In an paper published in History of Science, Inês Gomes and Frederico Ágoas examine ‘the intersection of environmental history and the history of science, specifically the impact of forestry science and fire management on land use and community dynamics in rural Portuguese mountains’.

  7. Let’s be frank,

    … most of these fires is a user failure:
    Rough usage handling or misuse; overcharging or overloading of power boards/plugs; incompatible chargers; etc.

    Responsible users shouldn’t be penalised, and Lithium demonised, because we have idiots that can’t read user manuals carefully.

  8. California's Fiery Legacy: Navigating the Flames of Nature and Human Intervention

    As wildfires rage across California, a deeper examination reveals the tangled relationship between humans and the land. The story of stewardship, fire management, and ecological restoration unfolds in...

  9. Three guiding principals of the Butchulla people :
    1) What is good for country must come first
    2) Do not touch or take anything that does not belong to you
    3) If you have plenty, you must share

    K’Gari, the world’s largest sand island off the coast of Australia, is seeing new opportunities emerge for its traditional owners, the Butchulla people, through fire recovery and land management efforts. They're transforming weed trees into 'dingo sticks' to help protect against the island's native dogs, which have posed a threat to tourists, especially children.

  11. Shocking act in Australian national park after rare animal’s death exposed

    "The government was warned a greater glider was living in an ancient hollowed tree. Their contractors cut it down. Victorian authorities have confirmed with Yahoo the greater glider showed signs of blunt force trauma."

  12. Same destruction, new name

    "Fire management in Victoria amounts to de facto native logging industry, conservationists say. On Thursday conservationists and the Victorian National Parks Association expressed shock after discovering a dead greater glider in an area where trees had been felled by FFMV."

    "Logging in Victoria’s native forests ended at the beginning of this year but Prof David Lindenmayer, a forest ecologist at Australian National University, said: “There’s a de facto logging industry now emerging under the guise of fire suppression.“To me, when you cut down big trees and put them on a truck and take them to a sawmill … that is logging.”"

    “One part of the same government department is trying to work out how to stop the greater glider going extinct while another is pushing it to extinction,” he said. There are some deep systemic problems here.”

  13. Severe bushfire risk increased by hazard reduction burns, report finds

    "Logging or prescribed burning can prevent a forest maturing and becoming less flammable."

    "Traditional fire management strategies such as hazard reduction burns, logging, and the thinning of undergrowth have increased the flammability of forests....Our history of forest management, including past logging and past thinning, has actually added to the fire burn."

    "Professor Lindenmayer said periodic hazard reduction burns could leave a forest in a higher state of flammability indefinitely."

    As #wildfires may worsen "due to a combination of #ClimateChange and past #FireManagement, post-fire dust emissions are likely to rise"

  19. @ai6yr My neighborhood is in the wildland urban interface (WUI) east of Seattle and the suburban cities. A potential nearby death trap here is a large creek with *very few* bridges. I have been trading email with the county urging them to speed up the planning process for using a local 'fire road' (unmaintained county right-of-way with locked gate) to help spread out evacuation traffic to a lightly used bridge. I am sending this article to my county contact. #PNW #Wildfire #FireManagement

  22. Another day of smoky air above #Toronto this morning. #ClimateChange is a scary thing, and the deliberate, arrogant loss of #Indigenous #FireManagement practices is a car crash in slow motion that we're now seeing the devastating effects of.

  23. Here in Australia: Kangaroo grass (Themeda Triandra) is a keystone species for ecological fire management according to the Ecological Society of Australia.

    "Regular burning maintains kangaroo grass abundance.
    Where kangaroo grass abundance declines and is replaced by less flammable herbs and leaf litter, fires do not spread until fuels are drier. Burning under dry conditions can damage trees and increase the density of woody plants that may fuel future intense fires."

    Outlines importance of regular cool burns for maintaining ecosystem integrity and reduce fire risk.

    In a warming climate we need to adopt indigenous practices of more cool burning which nurtures the landscape.

    LASH FIRE was one of the few EC funded projects that were invited to give a short presentation at
    @EU_Commission booth.👏
