  1. Forest fires, nature's way of clearing house for new saplings to grow, have become more prevalent and destructive since the 1970's. I am of the opinion that it's due to the rich folks building out near the forestland and making the fire service and the Forest Service spend so many resources on protecting their property that there isn't enough left over for them to actually do controlled burns and actually tend to the forest's needs. Coupled with the low moisture content in the wood from droughts and other natural and man made factors, has increased the wildfire season out west by over two months. We can't be good stewards of the earth if we expend so much on protecting the property of the rich instead of doing controlled burns to clear out dead trees and create room for more saplings.
