Finland Doesnt Have a Fire Problem Because they Rake leaves a Lot

[tinfoil]

I'm trying to recall the last time that we were warned about the consequences of a November drought in Finland and unusually hot, dry winds speeding through the Finnish deserts and canyons- but my memory fails me.

A ddgo search turns up some recent stories. Why would you expect to have been exposed to this news? Do you really think you know everything? That's the problem with you Dunning-Kruger all-stars

ust over 90 percent of the redwood forests are relatively slender second-growth trees that sprouted within the last 20 to 100 years and, unlike their massive elders, face a perilous future of more frequent and intense wildfires brought on by climate change.

“That was jaw-dropping to us,” said Emily Burns, director of science for Save the Redwoods League, a San Francisco-based nonprofit that has worked to protect and restore redwoods since 1918. “We saw there wasn’t much old growth left.”

Burns is a co-author of the league’s 52-page study, “State of Redwoods Conservation Report,” assessing the health of redwoods after a two-century onslaught from commercial logging, development, road building and agriculture, as well as fire suppression.

The remnants of old-growth forest, found mostly in Humboldt and Del Norte counties, “remain as islands of isolated forests surrounded by degraded and fragmented landscapes” of second-growth forests germinated in the wake of clear-cutting that started in the mid-19th century, the report said

Ever heard of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation? Probably not I am guessing. Oh and they do have droughts and forest fires in Finland!!

LMAO. So you are comparing the Santa Ana winds...which are the cause of the massive destruction once a fire starts, to the breezes that flow from the Baltic?

Or are you just proving that trump's a liar?

I'd like to know but am not up for early regurgitation

I did see a blurb there are a lot of enviornmental permits need to cull dead logging as old growth forests are insanely protected there. and no just for the spotted owl either

Forest fires were a natural event for eons. Periodic fires get rid of dead undergrowth. Dead stuff is the primary fuel since it takes a tremendous amount of heat to get a live tree to burn. As any camper or hiker who tried to build a fire with green wood will tell you lol.

Forest rangers use ‘controlled burns’ in many parts of the country for that very reason. I haven’t researched it, but I’ll wager CA environmental groups shut that sort of thing down in CA.

There has been a spate of forest fires in Finland in the last year.

Not that it’s worth the effort to post a link to counter this non-story deflection, but Trump and the Finnish leader discussed the issue in Helsinki—according to the Finnish President.

And yes, they have Forest fires even in Finland. And yes, dry leaves burn quite readily lol.

I know dry leaves burn readily, I just put a load in the garden incinerator!
