Wouldn’t it make more sense to drag out as much deadwood as possible and chip it into pulp or mulch? Much cleaner for the environment, with byproduct possibilities.
In fact, there’s some deadwood around here I’d like to see turned into pulp or mulch.
This region of Long Island actually requires burning to stay healthy. The seeds of the pine trees in the Pine Barrens are in cones and are sealed in pine tar. The periodic fires melt the tar and releases the seeds to allow for new forest growth. MOre of these burns would certainly be beneficial not only to clear the undergrowth, but to replenish the trees.

Kind of a mash-up of “Fargo” meets “The Road”.
And getting rid of deadwood allows the ‘undergrowth’ the chance to flourish.
