Bushfires: ok-ok, we'll wait some time...
Wildfires and floods support each other.
As the green burns down it can help less with water retention and slowing down the surface runoff or stabilizing slopes through the roots.
As the floodings uproot trees or kill them in stagnant areas with prolonged suffocation of the roots, the dead trees dry quicker and become more susceptible to fire.
Climate catastrophe is fun.
Aww, how cute...
Well, it is nearly winter 😂
I reckon we’re on coin toss climate. Heads (bushfires) or tails (floods). Sometimes it bushfires, sometimes it’s floods. Lately on the East Coast we’ve been on a flood streak. Our “luck” will change soon.
