The idea of extinguishing fires with sound waves is captivating, with companies like Sonic Fire Tech promoting "damage-free" suppression. While infrasound works for small flames in controlled settings, scaling it to replace traditional sprinkler systems faces huge challenges in energy, scalability, and environmental factors. It's a niche player, not a universal substitute for proven fire…

And with it, funding for #ballotbox #firesuppression units is nixed.

Forests, roads and mega fires
"More roads are associated with more fires"

"A problem arises when forest managers look at forests exclusively “through the lens of timber and dollar signs on trees."
