I'm not sure if this is a dumb idea or not, but I just had a brainwave and thought I'd just get it down without expanding further.
I remember in science class that we did an experiment on photosynthesis with pond weed whereby we had some submerged in water, exposed it to light and collected the oxygen bubbles in an upturned beaker. This was then used to ignite a smouldering splint of wood.
Could this be elaborated on to aid the lighting of a fire in the field?
Like I said, just a brainwave.
