@Warpspeed2 I've seen one tree explode. It was struck by lightning though, and it was only the top.

@LowEndMuse I saw a transformer explode in Dallas. Quiet a light show. May have been hit by lightning. Not sure. Hugs 🤗

@LowEndMuse In extreme stress conditions, a tree can kind of "explode". Not quite the way he was talking about it, though. Not like California wildfires are caused by forests full of exploding trees.

@LowEndMuse

that is why you need to remove Trees after they fall. Also this is how forest fires start as well as not raking

@Kinnison @LowEndMuse
Here in the East, rotting trees are a significant part of the ecosystem. In tropical climates, they are critical to maintaining rainforests -- if you have unlimited rain, sun and warmth, the limitation on growth of the forest is the fertility of the soil, which is continually being replenished by decaying vegetation. If you clear it -- as when people try to turn jungles into farms -- they find the soil is remarkably poor on its own, and it's hard to get the trees to regrow

@AlphaCentauri

and here you are thinking other two posts were serious and factual

@LowEndMuse

It's hard to believe he has tens of millions supporters. The guy is a serious idiot.
