>>2693235Same problem different region.
People complement boomer yards and all I see is urban dead zones full of invasive species, paved over water sheds, filled wetlands and a total absence of native trees (many of which live thousands of years).
>>2693238There was no record of any fire in the PNW tribal traditions until after the logging rush between 1800 and 1900, after the thousand year old trees were slash and burned.
I see several fires every year in clearcuts and the soil erosion on the costal forests is jaw dropping--the coast of WA will be a desert in less than 100 years.
