Wildfires are bad or good? Forestry experts tell us that wildfires are a natural part of the ecosystem and clean out the debris and diseases of the forest. They also say that the longer you prevent forest fires the worse they are going to get.
So why everytinme a fire breaks out they spend millions in trying to put them out?
It seems pretty contradictory to me.

Forest fires are a natural part of the ecosystem. Before we settled here and built highways, etc., forest fires would burn for months and cover areas as big as states. %26quot;Environmentalists%26quot; should then gladly sacrifce their home to nature when a fire comes. That is the ultimate in Green living.
