Lessons from the Past

In the aftermath of the 2019 bushfires, one thing became painfully clear: we’d forgotten lessons we once knew. For tens of thousands of years, Indigenous communities practiced “cold burning” - small, low-intensity fires that cleaned the forest floor without scorching it. It kept fuel loads down, protected habitat, and maintained balance. But over generations, that knowledge was pushed aside by bureaucracy, fear, and a belief that nature should be left untouched. Then the fires came hot and fast, feeding on years of accumulated fuel. Now, Australia is slowly looking back and realising perhaps the old ways weren’t so primitive.

Firestorm

When the inferno tore through Cobargo in December 2019, it wasn’t just homes that burned — it was history, livelihoods, and the heart of a tight-knit rural town. In this episode, survivors recount the chaos of that morning: walls of flame devouring the main street, skies turning black at dawn, and the desperate fight to save what couldn’t be saved. From the volunteer firefighters who refused to leave to families who returned to nothing but ash, this is the story of a community brought to its knees — and the long road back. “Cobargo” is a raw, first-hand account of loss, resilience, and the human cost of Australia’s Black Summer. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
