    it's a big leap you're making there and I'm about to go to bed so I can't go into the details,
    anyways, saying burning swath of land to aid the regrows isn't similar to seeding the clouds with aluminium or other untested chemicals,

    btw, this technic has been used for millenias because it promotes the growth of new plants, I believe you're confounding modern geoengineering to rural farming

    ..“There is no strong evidence that Indians purposely burned large areas....The presence of Indians did, however, undoubt- edly increase the frequency of fires above the low numbers caused by lightning.” As might be expected, Indian fire use had its greatest impact “in local areas near Indian habitations.”[10][11]

    Generally, the American Indians burned parts of the ecosystems in which they lived to promote a diversity of habitats, especially increasing the "edge effect," which gave the Indians greater security and stability to their lives... >> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nat…

    read the reasons for burning section, I'm not disagreeing with you, just that I rather not play god when we just don't know how it will end up,

    on this note good night to yall :)
