    These things do matter, but also, our weather patterns are dramatically changing. With record heat waves and dry spells coming in constantly, we’d still have this problem whether we’d lost the knowledge of forest stewardship or not.

      Ya, it’s a symptom of the intersection of several issues. We see the wildfires and just focus on “fix the wildfires and then forget about it”, but the fact is that things will continue to get worse, even if we started on making things better right now.

      But the longer we wait, the worse it’ll get, and the faster we’ll get there
