Leave a log alone?
With winter almost feeling like winter it would be tempting to trundle out into the local reserve and pick up some logs for the fire, but what about the animals whose home depends upon these logs? Lizards, snakes, the bugs that feed birds and threatened species further up the food chain, the bacteria and fungus that breakdown the wood and return valuable nutrients to the soil…all of this goes up in smoke when you lose a log.
Could your WED action be to fuel your fire sustainably and leave the logs on the public land for the wild life that needs them?
