The "National Forestry Agency Services" (Green Pants as I call - TopicsExpress



          

The "National Forestry Agency Services" (Green Pants as I call them) are managing what ecologists and fire scientists have considered the best practices for almost 40 years: fires that are sparked in remote wilderness, where they aren’t hurting anyone, should be allowed to burn. That’s because fire, as a natural part of the environment, is good for the ecosystem. Some essential animal and plant species actually thrive in fire-ravaged landscapes, and by thinning out excess timber and clearing out dry underbrush, small forest fires can help prevent large and deadlier blazes in the future. WHAT this means is: Yes get used to the smoke, Yes it is going to burn for a while and YES I wish Cal Fire was in Charge of this fire!
