DoomsdaysCWHuman use of fire has produced an era of uncontrolled burning: Welcome to the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Pyrocene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Pyrocene</a>by Stephen Pyne, The Conversation, January 22, 2025"<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LosAngeles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LosAngeles</a> is burning, but it isn't alone. In recent years, fires have blasted through cities in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Colorado" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Colorado</a>, the southern <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Appalachians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Appalachians</a> and the island of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Maui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Maui</a>, along with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Canada</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Australia</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Portugal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Portugal</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Greece" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Greece</a>. What wasn't burned was smoked in."Is this another case of a future not only dire but strange, without a narrative to join past to present or an analog for what is to come?"I'm a historian of fire, and my reply is that we have both a narrative and an analog. The narrative is the unbroken saga of humanity and fire, a companionship that extends through all our existence as a species. The analog is that humanity's fire practices have become so vast, especially in recent centuries, that we are creating the fire equivalent of an ice age."[...]Welcome to the Pyrocene"Widen the aperture a bit, and we can envision Earth entering a fire age comparable to the ice ages of the Pleistocene, complete with the pyric equivalent of ice sheets, pluvial lakes, periglacial outwash plains, mass extinctions and sea-level changes. It's an epoch in which fire is both prime mover and principal expression."Humanity's firepower underpins the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Anthropocene" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Anthropocene</a>, which is the outcome not just of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/anthropogenic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#anthropogenic</a> meddling but of a particular kind of meddling, made possible by humans' species monopoly over fire. Even climate history has become a subset of fire history."Fires in living landscapes, fires burning lithic landscapes—the interaction of these two realms of fire has not been much studied. It's been enough of a stretch to fully include human fire practices within traditional ecology. Yet humans—the keystone species for fire on Earth—are merging the two arenas of earthly burning with a give and take that is reshaping the planet in what resembles a slow-motion <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ragnarok" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ragnarok</a>."Add up all the effects, direct and indirect: the ice driven off by fire, the areas burning, the biogeographical <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/migrations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#migrations</a> as biotas move to accommodate changed conditions, the collateral impacts with damaged <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/watersheds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#watersheds</a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/airsheds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#airsheds</a>, the unraveling of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ecosystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ecosystems</a>, the pervasive power of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ClimateChange</a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/RisingSeaLevels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RisingSeaLevels</a>, a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MassExtinction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MassExtinction</a>, the disruption of human life and habitats.
