RE: Burn it All Down?

in LeoFinance18 hours ago

Forest fires are devastating, I have seen some of them from afar. We cannot get carried away by news that always seeks to alarm (journalistic yellow journalism) and we cannot challenge nature. Least of all, look for a culprit. If the environmental conditions are right, a simple spark, a simple arc left by the passage of free electrons, is the perfect trigger. I know that firefighters and volunteers are doing what they can with the resources at their disposal. The State has done its part, but of course, who is against nature? As far as economic losses are concerned, that is covered by insurance of all kinds.

Unfortunately, the loss of structures, cultural spaces and development is to be regretted, but man has always stood up to defeat and these events will serve as a learning experience and respect for the environment. Perhaps, if it had been an earthquake, opinions would be different. The war in Ukraine is a clear example of the destruction we humans do and justify ourselves for it.
