Stupid "environmentalists" are the direct cause of the huge fires we have now. Periodic, smaller fires is how forests clean up the floor, with the added benefit of destroying diseased trees. Logging in a well planned manner will accomplish the same thing.
Ignorant people fail to understand this. It is only the future if we continue to allow stupid, ignorant people to direct our policies.
