Hello friends of the hive! ... Ha ha ha, it even seems like a joke, a smokeless campfire. Despite the adversities we are experiencing, it seems there is always a correct way of doing things, I already tell you that this is all...
Sometimes the stove is turned on to make stew, soup, grilled meat or even breads, with everything generated by this pandemic, some services have been affected and I mean domestic gas, so the use of stoves increased.
At school and through many educational videos I have learned that we must not only take care of our environment but also ensure that this is accomplished in some way, even if it is with a comment that we provide. So I told my father that by lighting a fire we were polluting the environment.
He asked me to go with him like many other times to find some wood and thus tell me a story. Before I will tell you something, see how many spikes this tree has, I had already heard of it, my mother told me that one of her uncles one day went up to look for firewood with the son, he is an older man but he is big and strong, when they came On his return he felt dizzy and hurried to get there quickly, he could not stop and ended up colliding with this tree, and in the hospital they not only treated him for dizziness, they also had to remove some spikes.
We came to a place where there was a very big tree and I told my father that if that one was fine, he told me that it was not dry, it had only lost all its leaves because the summer was very strong. He told me; That is one reason why some stoves emit so much smoke, the wood they use is not completely dry.
We continue walking and a few meters away we find another one, this one, daughter, it is dry and it is also good wood, another reason why there is a lot of smoke, it is because of the type of wood we use since some even when they are dry do not serve as firewood.
"Out belowooo" It was very exciting to hear this phrase along with all the noise made by the dry branches bursting and in the end the crash against the ground, managed to tear it from the root, now I can imagine the roar of a very large tree falling.
Now you have to cut it into small logs to load it and while my father tells me the story that I mentioned at the beginning ... Daughter, when I was your age, my grandmother used a stove, she was practically inside the house, she didn't need it, but she she liked to make the arepas with firewood, she said that they were tastier and she was right, she turned it on and off with such naturalness and very little smoke was noticed, she once mentioned that the quality of the wood was the key, she always had good firewood stored ... I never tried a café con leche like the one she made.
My father tells me that he still remembers the tortillas that grandmother prepares for breakfast on weekends, in December she prepared Hallaca, it was incredible and the most funny thing was that the threads with which they came tied had to be returned, they were very resistant and I used them again every year.
As you can see, I couldn't find a place to go when my father told me the story, it was almost noon and the sun was very strong, I realized that a few meters away there was a green tree, very green and that made me very curious.
When I asked him why this tree was green despite the drought, he told me that it was possibly some type of "oleaginous" plant, that is, that they produce some type of oil and that makes them more resistant, we are going to investigate anyway to find out what kind of plant is it.
As you can see, this is the wood inside, it is solid and resistant which makes it have few smoke emissions, in this way we take care of the environment and our health.
In this last photo you can see the intensity of the ember and at first glance the smoke is not noticeable, it is great to learn new things even if they do not seem to be useful, always open an occasion when they are needed.

Hola @elmundodexao, muy bueno tu post, cuando vamos al campo mi hermano es muy selectivo con la leña por esa misma razón.
Hola @leynedayana, si me imagino que muchas personas no saben eso porque no es una costumbre cocinar a leña… Gracias por pasar.
