Mitigating forest fires in the 21st century:

Forestry mulchers collect the debris

Mulch is put into wood gasifiers

Power is used to mine bitcoin in a shipping container with starlink

Heat from the miners is used to dry out the next batch of wood chips and heat a tiny jobsite trailer

Charcoal from the output of the wood gasifier is sent to a local farms and integrated into BSFL setups, used as animal bedding, etc

Biochar spread on pastures to increase water retention in the soil further mitigating drought and future fires

A single setup costs $250k-$1mill and would break even in less than 5 years, creates jobs and is green AF. But the govt doesn't actually want to fix this problem. #permaculture
