    I've loved nature shows since I was little. And when my son was little he would insist on leaving his TV on, so I gave him the choice of National Geographic or Animal Planet. Nature shows are so soothing/relaxing!

      @@KevinKickChannel arson implies it’s a malevolent act. Many places require bush fires to maintain the land and control the levels of dry materials. The whole reason there were such bad bush fires a few years ago was that the galaxy-brains in government said to not do it any more due to ‘climate change’.

    the plant can instantly burst into flame yet you are standing in the middle of them.

    There is a species of plant that has no "green cells" (anymore), a so-called fallen plant. And on an other hand there is a sea snail specimen that carries algae in its body. Would nature be embedded in the cosm? NatAm (native americans, even though one would rather say new norway natives or new asia natives) kind of avoided having a word for nature in use.
