Thanks for the recent article and the new thread kalakoa.
I did like reading that our county would consider hiring an arborist to help identify the (ROD). Maybe they should consider hiring a team to study or investigate what may have caused the rare fungus to show up on Puna's Ohia trees in the first place?
Whats interesting to me is that in the year of 2009. Our county, state, and government made the decision to heavily increase geothermal production here in lower Puna. This type of heavy industry increase may have coincided with the wild fire spreading of this (ROD),jmo. Ground zero for the (ROD) outbreak has been noted to be around the electric Geothermal power plant which is located at the bottom of leilani. The state of hawaii seems to be concerned about the many ways the (ROD) could indeed spread to other islands. Which makes me wonder if this ebola fungus could have lived long enough to hitchhike overseas to puna on some of the mainland geothermal drilling equipment?
