Areas that had multiple fires prior to 2019–20 had greater biodiversity losses when Black Summer fires hit compared to areas that had burnt once or not at all beforehand.
Interesting, certainly runs counter to prevailing narrative.
Oh gawd. Lignin and fungi i’d forgotten all about that. Biology was never my strong suit!
carbon capture is sort of a farce
Yeah, i like your phrasing here. By no means a bad thing to promote, but not the simple silver bullet solution to net zero/GHG reduction the marketing departments of large emitting companies make it out to be.
That information is wrong, coal is still being formed today. Although mostly in bogs, which provide an environment where decay doesn’t happen.
About a million to 10 million times slower than we are using it though, and the rate is declining relatively as bogs are cleared or mined for peat/moss and our coal use increases year on year.

My apologies I lied to you.
