So I’m curious - I live in the PNW and when trees fall on their own, typically they’re cut up enough to just move them out of the way, similar to the pics.
But we obviously get tremendous rain and most of these begin growing moss and breaking down. During the summer, they’re dryer, but not anything like the pics. Does this create the same amount of risk?
I don’t think so. I don’t hear of record size wildfires coming out of the Pacific Northwest every year or two.
california has a decaying, socialist, high tax, large population of poor people and idealogues and cult leaders all causing trouble, plus they thought it would be a great idea to plant eucalyptus trees everywhere, trees from a country that has wildfires unless you exercise strict burning off regimes (the trees need the fire to propagate, also, and when there is enough, they usually dominate the trees that don't propagate because of the fire)
some genius put eucalyptus and acacia trees on this island of madeira too, and as a consequence there is fires here, except the landscape is so crazy that they need helicopters to put them out, literally almost none of the island is reachable by road
There definitely have been some fires but ya, not massive ones like California. I’m very ignorant on forest management stuff, I grew up in the desert 🤣
