Does this surprise anyone? Wildfires are good for forests and a natural fertilizing process. Most trees explode spreading seeds and it clears the dead stuff on the ground.

Keeping forests from burning entirely over the last 100 years is making for crazy wildfires.

This is what I keep saying, yet everyone gets all pissy when I set the forests on fire.

Wow almost like the plants thrive in a burn environment and our lack of controlled burns or taking care of the environment only makes the big burns worse.
