      @@KevinKickChannel arson implies it’s a malevolent act. Many places require bush fires to maintain the land and control the levels of dry materials. The whole reason there were such bad bush fires a few years ago was that the galaxy-brains in government said to not do it any more due to ‘climate change’.

    There is a species of plant that has no "green cells" (anymore), a so-called fallen plant. And on an other hand there is a sea snail specimen that carries algae in its body. Would nature be embedded in the cosm? NatAm (native americans, even though one would rather say new norway natives or new asia natives) kind of avoided having a word for nature in use.

Have a lot or respect for you sir, been watching your documentaries for 50+ years (in black and white), I watched every show I could, but this seems a little odd when you know they can burst into flame and you are standing in a field of them.
