Self-extinguishing batteries could reduce the risk of deadly and costly battery fires
Is Forestry Corporation NSW creating a fire risk for local residents?
"Residents and ecologists express bushfire concern over debris left after logging in Ourimbah State Forest."
"State government-owned Forestry Corporation NSW (FCNSW) logged in the Ourimbah State Forest between July and August last year...Debris including stumps, logs, bark and fallen trees were left behind."
"Ecologist Mark Graham, who visited the Ourimbah State Forest before the most recent logging operation, said the debris was "a threat to human life and property" and could result in "more frequent fires". There's people surrounding the whole area from about a couple of hundred metres onwards."
"Logging has made the forest more vulnerable."
"Australian National University ecologist Professor David Lindenmayer said logging a forest makes it more dangerous because it can drastically increase the severity of a fire burning through the area."
