A controlled burn is a way to restore and restart a forest or prairie. Every so often a prairie should be burned for restoration. If invasive species started living in a forest or prairie it can be burned to get rid of them. Controlled burns can be a great way to help a forest or prairie but can also harm the environment.
Even though fire is natural it is still harming to the atmosphere. The smoke creates pollution. Burning down a forest doesn't just mean you are burning down trees and bushes. You are destroying many habitats and animals who were not able to escape during the burn.
Burning down a prairie is good to replenish and renew the growth. When the burn is done it is important to do it in colder weather so the fire doesn't get extremely hot and dangerous. Fire stimulates the growth of new plants. This is because the heat from the fire moves and opens seeds.
A controlled burn is not always the best choice but forests and prairies can for sure benefit from them. Controlled Burns will help disperse seeds and produce new growth but can also be harmful to the environment through pollution.
Not bad at all! Don't doubt your writing. Your very smoothly and descriptively described affects of controlled burns. I also thought your vocabulary was quite proficient. Great job!
ReplyDeleteYou didn't quite state your opinion, but you had some good facts about controlled burns and good sentence fluency. I thought is was good, except for maybe you could have added source to go along with it.
ReplyDeleteThis was a very informative post. It gets a lot of facts into little writing, which is good. Other than adding a source, I don't think anything needs to be changed.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments! Sorry for not adding a source I thought I did. I have one on now!
