Looks like the photo is still too big for that tiny pocket …

I love this topic but I feel like no one has a realistic solution for how we’re going to manage huge ecosystems in a very labor intensive fashion. I don’t think it’s really possible in the current socioeconomic context.
The natives did it by having the entire community involved. We may need to move towards something like that.

Generally, good land management is lazy land management. Nature (and her ecosystems) got on just fine without us. The only reason we need to manage the fire cycle now is so that we don’t have our population centers burnt by the natural fire cycle. However, we largely already fucked that part up by intervening in the fire cycle, and not allowing areas close to these centers to burn. As a result, you end up with conflagrations popping up where you don’t want them to.

Exactly this. Most land management is focused on “how can we make this better for humans” not “how can we make this better for nature”. The answer largely is “stop fucking with shit and let it do its own thing and self regulate again”.

So you think do nothing and hope the fires even out? I have wondered about this but it’s not clear what would happen since our ecosystems have not operated that way for tens of thousands of years–and had dozens of now extinct megafauna engineering them back then.

Instead of mandatory military service have mandatory conservation service?

While I’m sure that would work, I don’t support conscription.

It was made for pocket watches and they keep it around for no particular reason. I find it useless and a waste of denim.

I keep change (rarely), free drink tokens from my local bat’s happy hour, and my earplugs in there

It also works for zippos, airpods, pocket watches, meshtastic nodes, hand warmers, and dime bags!
