I should add that it is just not possible to carry out hazard reduction burns as was done in the past purely because of the longer fire season and the drier winters. Of course they are still done but not as much as in the past because of the above reasons and the spending cuts mentioned in a previous post.Re: Australian Fires
Rather ironically, when the two catastrophes are considered, the flooding here in the UK was reckoned to be partly due to cutbacks in maintenance of drains, gullies and small streams with lack of dredging the larger rivers. All those cutbacks in the small ways made the flooding very much worse than it otherwise may have been.Re: Australian Fires
