I have been thinking... are campfires really needed any more? With the new lightweight campstoves/backpacking stoves, are camp fires anything more than reminiscing? This is definitly not to step on anyones toes, but I just wondered. I was reading a book, The Tree: A Natural History of What Trees Are, How They Live, and Why They Matter by Colin Tudge, and he mentions that when you burn a tree, it releases all of the carbon that it has taken out of the environment. Anyone have any thoughts?
