It takes a (global) village to put fires out.

Even just this little news clip of what's surely a longer video that exists somewhere is pretty awesome. I mean, I know firefighters come from all over North America and the rest of the world - Australia, etc, to fight wildfires here during fire season.. which is going to become ever more of a thing year by year as things warm up and dry out. I just think it's pretty cool - and the song & dance adds a nice touch. A very small display of human unity - gives me hope that MAYBE, just maybe, people can and will band together to do the things we Know we need to do to stabilize the climate of our little blue marble so we can keep living on it. More fire fightings, LOTS more tree planting etc. Imagine a not so distant future where fire fighters, water cleaners & protectors, tree seedlings and all things related are being loaded onto airplanes and massive ships that used to be used to fight each other.. kind of a neat thought that all of that and more is a possibility. 8)

Great way to get a crew pumped and bonded-to do anything- including fight fires. Doing a "war dance" of sorts.

The only thing missing from the vid is a musical sound track.

Some suggestions...

Maybe people should go out and rake the forests, like they do in Finland.
