What the article doesn't seem to mention is that the fire that was bombed in Sweden was on a military training ground. Undetonated ammunition was the very reason why bombs were used, as conventional methods were considered too dangerous.
- duxup 8y agoI guess the resulting solutions are just ... more bombs followed by more bombs.
- xvector 8y agoThe idea is that in a few hundred years, the ground will be all unexploded bombs. Then you don't have to worry about forest fires anymore.
- Nasrudith 8y agoTo be fair it is easier to deal with undetonated explosives when the area isn't on fire. Granted removing all ordinance from an area is an expensive and painstaking process to do safely - hence why they prefer to just slap on an 'off limits' cordon and sign around the old areas instead of remediating and reusing it.
