Not good. I was reading about this on a kiwi forum aussie bush fires never get mentioned but when aussies die from them then the topics start.
"On warm days vaporised eucalyptus oil rises above the bush to create the characteristic distant blue haze of the Australian landscape. Eucalyptus oil is highly flammable and bush fires can travel through the oil-rich air of the tree crowns with an explosive power that firefighters can do little about. " Very tough enviroment, a bit like living beside drums of petrol stacked 30 metres high"
