@matttutt@mastodon.social its not the people who moved to cities to find work, its the government and authorities failing to do forest fire management if we laxed FFM here in Australia the consequences would be dire.. Yall ever heard of a back burn, people? indigenous folx were doing it long before white man showed up.. but we killed off or segregated the indigenous people who knew how to manage the land now we just manage it ourselves... poorly.. but at least still something right?.... right?! Wrong.. It's not enough because when bushfire season rolls around we lose live, property and worst of all, flora and fauna.. We point the fingers at whose to blame but.. when in reality its all our problem and there can only be change where there is proactive change.. such as listening to cultural indigenous leaders and elders who know the land and can help point out problem areas so as to better equip us to fight bushfires

    @harper@toot.cat yep this is true, I don't mean to *blame* the people for leaving the countryside to move to the city, not my intention, they are just following the money as in obeying capitalism (I guess for many they didn't want to leave). Is more the fact that with depopulation comes this heightened risk of fires, but yes... ultimately indigenous living is the only way to any kind of liveable future. I look forward to people coming forward with (yet more) tech inventions to prevent these fires!!! 🫠
