Fire has many valuable uses…
such as cooking our meals.
However, if a campfire gets out of hand…
and grows…
that is when the red trucks roll.
In Dubai fire is used for entertainment.
A few years ago, in and around Geelong,
fire destroyed several churches.
At the time rumours suggested
it may nor have been an accident.
Even though there were no really bad fires nearby,
this was the scene in Western Victoria also a few back.
California or USA’s Pacific Coast states would
probably have seen similar, or worse,
during the past few months.
Sadly, I believe many of these fires would be
significantly reduced if authorities would allow
fallen timber to be removed from forest areas.
173 Victorians perished in fires a few years back
which were deliberately started and
burned through heavily forested areas where
there had been no fuel reduction.
