Fires are destructive at first, however they can be very beneficial to the ecosystem in the long run. Think of fires as a hard reset rather than pure destruction. #biologist #researchscientist #ecology #wildfires #stem

I neglected my greenhouse for so long that it developed its own ecosystem. 😂 There was a tree growing inside, my celery looked like bamboo, weeds had taken over everything, and just when I thought it couldn't get any worse, I almost stepped on a snake and scared the life out of myself. I guess if you ignore something long enough, nature just takes it back. 🌱🐍😅
