With the cold season approaching with each passing day, there are lots of things you should prepare for, like firewood. To be more precise, splitting firewood! Sure, the good old axe is a solution most people resort to. But there are alternatives to this manual driven activity. There’s the Logmatic Wedge Axe or the Foot Operated Log Splitter you can choose for splitting firewood. You can even opt for other solutions, like a vintage version of a mechanical splitter; see the one powered by steam in full action! There are more exotic… ideas. Like a car-driven machinery or one with a splitting edge that’s been welded to the flywheel! These are, of course, homemade and their security isn’t assured. But you have to check out the Splitmaster. The piece of hardware is simply awesome and it features a tumbling cylinder to shed small pieces into a dumpster. Watch it at work and you’ll definitely forget about that inefficient axe.

Australia is Dropping Vegetables From Choppers to Feed Wildlife Starved by Fires
Australia has been going through some tough time with forest fires spreading all over the country and causing a severe loss of wildlife. In areas where the fire has stopped burning, the remaining animals are still struggling to find food and survive. Luckily, Australians have found an ingenious way to help animals in these hard times and started a rescue program that involves food dropped from helicopters. Among the most affected are the wallabies and since they are left without their natural habitat, finding food is extremely hard for them. So, now the wallabies are showered with carrots and sweet potatoes that are being dropped from helicopters, this way staying safe and undisturbed. Of course, this is only a temporary solution but one that solves a major issue and ensures the survival of this species. A lot of other animals are in danger of going extinct in Australia, so there is still a lot of work to do and everyone can get help by donating to organizations such as The World Wildlife Federation – Bushfire Emergency Fund, World Animal Protection, Animals Australia or WIRES Wildlife Rescue.

Life Finds A Way: Pictures After The Australian Bushfires
Humans don’t appreciate nature to its fullest, and in many cases, the beauty offered by Earth is taken for granted. Pollution and climate change are major issues in our times, and they have severe repercussions, but nature somehow always finds a way to recover. The same thing applies to Australia’s forests, the might survivors of months of terrible bush fires that left the country mourning. Experts suspect that the bush won’t fully recover to its previous state, but signs of animals returning have been more than promising. Thanks to years of evolution and arid climate, many Australian plants have adapted to the climate and learned how to protect their buds in case of high temperatures or even fire. This means that they will start to sprout soon and can even find nutrients in ash. Pictures of green trees and plants among the ashes are circulating the Internet and they are once again proof that life is cyclic, and nature can recover after experiencing a traumatic event. Hopefully, soon there will be more and more pictures like these, filled with hope and wildlife will return too to the Australian bush.
