We have seen that pattern several times in past fires since 1991. https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/fire-in-eb-hills-august-2017-6.jpgFire in EB Hills - August 2017 6When UCB destroys trees, they leave the logs lying on the ground. Note that some of those logs burned in the August 2017 fire.https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/fire-in-eb-hill-august-2017-1.jpgFire in EB Hill - August 2017 1This area on the west side of Grizzly Peak is known as Frowning Ridge. It is one of the first areas that was clear-cut by UC Berkeley over 10 years ago. Destroying the trees did not prevent the grass and shrubs from igniting in the August 2017 fire. Pictures of that area before and after the trees were destroyed are available here: https://milliontrees.me/2013/06/08/guest-article-about-fema-projects-by-a-student-of-the-forest/ 2017-08-18T00:33:55+00:00monthlyhttps://milliontrees.me/2017/08/01/tamarisk-beetle-a-case-study-in-the-dangers-of-biological-controls-to-eradicate-non-native-species/https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/distribution-of-tamarisk-leaf-beetle.jpgDistribution of tamarisk leaf beetleDistribution of tamarisk leaf beetle.

Prior to that transition, the swallowtails were able to lay eggs only once a year, when the native was available. The introduced non-native is available year around which enables the swallowtail to lay their eggs year around. https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/garter-snake-in-eucalyptus-leaves.jpgGarter snake in eucalyptus leavesGarter snake in euclypatus leaf litter.

In the foreground are many acres of coyote brush that are about six feet tall. The plan does not propose any "treatments" in these acres of highly flammable coyote brush. In the background is the eucalyptus forest that will be thinned in some places and removed in others. This is not a plan that will reduce fire risk. 2011-07-29T19:18:42+00:00monthlyhttps://milliontrees.me/2010/11/20/another-eucalyptus-myth-bird-death-according-to-audubon-2/https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/watsonia00011.jpgWatsonia0001Photo of Watsonia, Willow Walk, Berkeley, 2010.

We notice that they are very tall and there is no fuel ladder to their canopy. In the foreground, on the right, we see some of the native bay laurels that EBPRD plans as replacements for the eucalypts. We notice that the bays are close to the road and that they grow to the ground, providing a fuel ladder to adjacent vegetation. We know that bays are just as “oily” as eucalyptus and that they are vectors for and victims of Sudden Oak Death. Although EBRPD does not acknowledge this fact, the bays are a greater fire risk than the eucalypts that will be removed. Replacing eucalypts with bay laurels will increase fire risk.2013-06-06T00:44:17+00:00monthlyhttps://milliontrees.me/2010/06/16/they-can-destroy-your-trees/https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5483-2.jpgIMG_5483-2Demonstration in Larkspur, June 13, 2010https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5485.jpgIMG_5485Trees on private property in Larkspur2010-08-21T01:55:14+00:00monthlyhttps://milliontrees.me/2010/06/24/restoration-or-destruction/https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/channel-islands.jpgChannel IslandsSanta Cruz Island, NPS photohttps://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/img_5472.jpgIMG_5472Herbicide application notice, Santa Cruz Islandhttps://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/channel-island-fox-2.jpgChannel Island Fox 2Channel Island Fox, Wikimedia Commonshttps://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/santa_cruz_island-2.jpgSanta_Cruz_Island 2Santa Cruz Island, Wikimedia Commons2023-07-26T03:39:35+00:00monthlyhttps://milliontrees.me/2010/07/21/change-the-only-constant/https://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/poison-hemlock.jpgPoison hemlockPoison hemlock, East Bay hillshttps://milliontrees.me/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/crissy-field.jpgCrissy FieldCrissy Field, NPS photo2010-08-21T01:52:10+00:00monthlyhttps://milliontrees.medaily1.02026-04-02T21:56:37+00:00
