Eucalyptus GroveWe have left the suburbs and pass by many groves of Australian eucalyptus trees. These beautiful trees are now regarded as noxious weeds because they are so highly flamable. They add fuel to the California wildfires that have raged in recent years. Nobody seems to know what to do with them. The wood is prone to split and splinter, so it's not useful for building or furniture. They planted them in Hawaii to be marketed to Japanese papermills, but then the Japanese decided they didn't want them. They do make good wind breaks, however. |
