Cultural Burning
The practice of carefully managed fire to maintain country's health.
Fire has been used for tens of thousands of years to manage country - clearing undergrowth, promoting new growth, driving game, creating firebreaks, and maintaining the mosaic of habitats that supports biodiversity. This is not destruction but renewal.
We put fire into the country and the country comes alive.
Cultural burning is now recognized as essential for Australian land management.
