California Burning AGAIN!
Stoker:
Seen it on BBC news this morning.. Not again Ms Kerrie said.. Be safe all.
Thanks Leroy
sleek:
Dont they do controlled burns out there at all?
Pat B:
The west has been is severe drought for quite a few years now. A controlled burn would be out of control in no time. It's all fire country anyway. The land can recover because that's how it's evolved. It's the human encroachment that makes it a disaster.
Eric Krewson:
Pat nailed it; I did see a video of a house a forester built in a fire area, he didn't use flammable materials on the outside, kept a buffer zone of rock and sand for landscaping and a minimum of foliage.
After a huge wildfire swept through his subdivision his house was the only one left standing, it was unharmed, common sense goes a long way.
Zuma:
Tragedy, tragedy, tragedy
