Tin Can Fire Experiment let's Throw Some Trash in Nature 

Absolutely Jacqui, I noticed so much trash this year in the woods of people wanting to go out because of the restrictions. So instead of a video of cleaning,I thought it would be a eye opener to let them see what happens when they throw it away in nature. Hopefully they think twice when they go out camping next time. Iet them see what happens

Agree,i made a video on the aftermath of those cans,they where put on a private property In a safe place for wildlife,unfortunately I try to retrieve the footage of the sd card. But trash don't belong in nature. Greetings Steve

Agree Mark,when your walking out,your pack is already lighter. Atb Steve

I'm curious in what way it would affect the burned can,and how quickly it would be turned into a crumbled piece of tin

I think so too!looking forward to see the out come,doing regulary updates

I agree with @Wiltshire Man 👍🏻

Your probably right Sandy, Because it is a well known place for me . I took on the challenge,I come here regularly and it isn't a public place. I definitely going to clean the rubbish,but it going to be a small experiment so who watched the video hopefully think twice when they go out camping next time.

We have a lot of rain,and that area is even floated or very swampy winter time. In a few weeks,you can't come there anymore till January. I'm curious what the results will be in a couple of months. Best opinion is of course to clean it up. Merry Christmas my friend.

Thank you very much sister, Your absolutely right,keep it clean don't leave trash. God bless you and your loved ones

Thanks Naomi, Let's see what happens. Stay tuned Atb Steve

I'm curious as well,it is a experiment to let people see it isn't gone after throwing it into the nature. Your welcome my friend God bless Atb Steve

That's a great story my friend. But I think your right,but there is a rumour when you burn it,it will be gone quicker. That's why I want to show if it's true . Atb Steve

I live in a wet climate,that specific area is even floated or very swampy in a couple of weeks. I'm curious how much the difference would be. But the maximum in time is around a year to see what the results are. Experimentally of course Steve

Agree Kat, I take everything out what I take in, I'm doing this experiment to see if there is any difference, Some believe it will be disintegrated within a year. Let's find out.

@@sosteve9113 we shall see! 🙂

Thanks,a small amateurish experiment

Hi Jennifer,I personally think your right. Maybe a little difference,but not that significant imho There will be updates ATB from over the pond. Steve

@@sosteve9113 Nice to see for sure! 😉

You have the same mindset as me. There is a rumor that if it will be burned it will be disintegrated within a year. Like if it's ok to throw it away in nature. With this experiment we will see,but it is never ok . Just take it with you and throw it in the bin

Agree Hildegard, It is never ok to throw things in nature where it doesn't belong. Still there is so much trash everywhere. I noticed last year there was such a increased filth on my favorite trails. People getting more out because of the restrictions,but it comes with a price. We are looking for there beautiful natural places , bathing it the smell and colours that nature us provide. Getting lost and forget track of time when you stand still and watch live around you. You would think people take there trash away and having a bit of respect. Some even think if you burn everything,it will be gone within a year,with the intention to say it's ok? Instead of making this, one time video of doing some cleaning and taking trash out,I thought I make a experiment,and see what happens with the tin cans. Hoping there is a spark in there head,and thinking maybe I can better take it out instead leave it behind. Ps:I really hope you could enjoy the hike and enjoyed the snow. I was curious the other day what part of Germany had received snow,I looked it up on the weather forecast.:-) Did you broke your personal record? May there be hope, warmth,and good health for you to dear Hildebrand.

@@sosteve9113 I totally agree with you. Same here. All kind of people invade nature, but often from that certain species which is careless and only want to take but never give, without care and responsibility. Sundays in "my" beloved park are desasters of trash after Saturday night parties and we even have plenty of garbage containers there which are emptied every day! Further down along the river and in the forests, it is a little better, but with visibly more traces. No, to be honest, I had to interrupt my tour because I felt more and more sick with every more step I took. So, I spent the weekend mostly taking care and laying down often, so cought the cold in the beginning and am already better. I am just packing my stuff and try again later, partly will be in the dark. The snow melted already, we had some lovely flakes today and the sky is filled with snow clouds. I am living in the southern part of Germany, Steve, in Bavaria. Not in the Alpes, but you can see them from here on clear days. We have two rivers here and plenty of springs and clear creeks plus a very large forest and many lakes. So, beautiful nature is near and I am so grateful for it. The little sickness shouldn't sound like drama queen, I was okay and did some nice reading and some sewing plus normal dog rounds. Hope, your weekend was pleasant. I wish you a good start into your new week. :-)

@@hildegardkhelfa5358 sounds like a l,lovely area with a beautiful view at the Alps. Sounds like a perfect spot to do a picknick. You will improve soon,just take it step by step. You already made big improvements . It's sad that people having all the facilities to throw their garbage to the bin,still throwing it on the ground. I did some sewing the other day, but I only know the basics,your probably laughed when you saw me struggling with it :-)

@@sosteve9113 No, I would never laugh, because it is all so valuable and every even so little effort is special and counting. I would be happy with you for trying it and doing whatever you do. Learning by doing is always the best way and so many people don't even try. Besides, we can always learn from each other and there are always people who are ways better. Yet: doesn't matter. It is no competition and it is special that you do it your way. Thank you for sharing this. :-) Besides: change of plan (again): I was doing just a little 5 km round with Tino now. Better to give me one more day and start tomorrow fresh. Again, all the little snow powder already melted and we looked like mud piglets... well, actually, more like pigs. Yet: sun broke though the clouds for a couple of minutes und turned the muddy paths into glowing loveliness. One of "my" crows flew all the way with us and it was so lovely. I have so little pain today that it was especially pleasant and making me so happy. And this lovely scent of snow in the air. Maybe, tomorrow, I wake up in a white world. Whatever comes, will be fine. Hope, you are having a great day.

let's see what happened with he tin can in the future

@@sosteve9113 im excited to know

Happy New year to you and your loved ones as well I need to check them out and see how they progress You mention that some are worh money as well,that means they are out there very long i suppose

Agree my friend, I definitely going to clean the rubbish,but it going to be a small experiment so who watched the video hopefully think twice when they go out camping next time.

Your thinking on the same page as me my friend. Let's see what happens. Atb Steve

Ik neem het ook gewoon mee ,dit experiment is eigenlijk bedoeld om aan te tonen dat het niet zomaar verdwijnt. Had onlangs een discussie hierover,dat het verbrande metaal snel zou vergaan. Hoewel de uitleg aannemelijk klonk,is het uiteraard geen voorbeeld om het achter te laten. Het viel me op dat door de hele pandemie veel meer vuil langst de paden lag,ipv een opruim video te maken,was het mss beter om een video te maken over de gevolgen . De boodschap van leave no trace anders bekeken. Jammer genoeg denk ik dat daardoor in Nederland de paalkampingen verdwijnen door mensen die het vuil achter laten. Bestaan ze eigenlijk nog wel? Groeten

Dat is inderdaad het hele idee dat de ronde gaat,een blik verbrand gaat binnen het jaar verdwenen zijn. Dat idee leek mij zo sterk dat het weg zou zijn,dat ik het zelf wilde zien. Nu ik weet dat het wat controversieel is maar in plaats van te laten zien hoe je moet opruimen,dacht ik misschien moet ik laten zien dat het toch niet weg is door het te laten liggen en beter kunnen weg gooien. Groetjes Steve

@@sosteve9113 we zullen het beleven. Goed experiment👌

Always interesting to see how these little experiments turn out.

I'm curious as well,looking forward to the results.

I'm curious to see as well what will happen

Agree my good friend, I'm curious about the results as well,will it be debunked ,that rumour of it is ok to burn it, And it will be disintegrated within a year. We will see Atb

I'm curious as well,how would the fire affects the burned can

Your absolutely right , I noticed so much trash this year in the woods of people wanting to go out because of the restrictions. So instead of a video of cleaning,I thought it would be a eye opener to let them see what happens when they throw it away in nature. And show that it is not gone. Of course area will be cleaned afterwards

I have to agree with you .that is what I'm thinking as well. Best thing is to take it out of the woods if you bring it in. Going to do a regular update of the tin can,to see how they evolving. Happy holidays to you and your loved ones,my friend. Atb Steve

That will be cool to see updates

Thanks,I really appreciate it

Merci mon ami, à la prochaine

Plastic wouldn't be a option at all. This experiment is done in a area that's not public. I noticed so much trash this year in the woods of people wanting to go out because of the restrictions. So instead of a video of cleaning,I thought it would be a eye opener to let them see what happens when they throw it away in nature. And show it's not gone. Your absolutely right, Pack it in -pack it out. Atb Steve

Thank you very much

There is a rumour,that the burned can would be disintegrate within a year. With this experiment I can see if its true. However you take out what you take in is much better Atb Steve

@@sosteve9113 That is best. However, metal can find a way in the ecosystem like stone and wood and .. all things flesh. Unlike plastics and chemicals and synthetic stuff like pesticide and fabric and fishing line and such .. I heard a rumour you want to take a little trip to the Veluwe? Nice! A chance to meet and have a pint.

@@spijkerpoes yes the Veluwe looked great,sure is something to put on the bucket list 👍

Your absolutely right Steve Because it is a well known place for me . I took on the challenge,I come here regularly and it isn't a public place.

Ben eens benieuwd hoe het gaat verlopen. Het zou idd wel eens kunnen

Is it a humid area Tom? Where this experiment is going will be very swampy in a couple of weeks

@@sosteve9113 maybe then the moisture .

There is a rumor that when the tin can have been into a fire,it will be disintegrate within a year. I put them there for a certain time and we can see what would be happening to the cans Think this could be interesting Atb Steve Ps gives me a reason to GET OUT lol
