Extreme wildfire activity has more than doubled worldwide.

We are paying the price of fear mongering and money laundering…

Your logic is faulty Furrow, a doubling of extreme forest fires is not about the area burned. Its about the severity of fires and their intensity.

Of course the area burned has declined as we have more capability to fight fire with more resources since 1920.

As well with deaths from climate. We have more resources to prevent deaths.

You really need to come up with better arguments instead of siding with the anti science climate change denialists.

Like Grain farmer who says lightning doesn't cause forest fires.

Climate-driven shifts to fire weather


Canada is warming at twice the global average rate due to its northern location. Rising temperatures, increasing evapotranspiration, and more frequent and severe fire weather ([url]https://natural-resources.canada.ca/climate-change/climate-change-impacts-forests/fire-weather[/url]) conditions are causing more wildland fires to:

• ignite
• spread quicker
• burn hotter
• persist
• affect larger areas and more people

The frequency and intensity of wildland fires are influenced by various factors including:

• atmospheric stability
• temperature
• moisture (humidity, rain, snowpack, drought)
• cause of ignition (lightning vs human activities)
• wind
• vegetation (fuel type, load, availability)
• topography
• land-use
• other forest disturbances (disease / pest infestations)
• forest and fire management practices

Read it again Furrow! 21 years of recent data!

Extreme wildfire activity has more than doubled worldwide.


NASA's Terra and Aqua satellites detect active wildfires twice each day. Scientists studied this data over a 21-year span and found that extreme wildfires have become more frequent, more intense, and larger. The largest increase in extreme fire behavior was in the temperate conifer forests of the Western U.S. and the boreal forests of northern North America and Russia. Warmer nighttime temperatures are a major contributing factor, allowing fire activity to persist overnight.

Maybe nobody told the satellite that tactics have changed.
They used to fight fire overnight when humidity was high and the wind was down.

No one is allowed in at night now as it is considered unsafe.
Go out after breakfast and the daily safety meeting.

Might be why the satellite sees more fire activity at night?
Climate Change is always the problem.

"Canada is warming at twice the global average rate due to its northern location."

Doubled more extreme larger but but less area burned, crazy contradictions you can't see?

That stupid statistic again deserves a BIG...

[chuckChuck]

Flipper the flat earther suffering from too much carbon monoxide is losing it.

The anti science types have short memories about the numerous recent terrible fire seasons we have suffered!

Do you remember all the smoke last year?

Memory loss from too much carbon monoxide?

[fjlip]

Do YOU remember the fires/smoke in the early 1900's????? Must have been insanely scary, dangerous...

Get more C02 and think!

[Grain Farmer]

What has started all the fires so far this yr in sask CC????

[chuckChuck]

Lightning started the lobstick fire Grain farmer! So when are going to wise up?

Are you going to stupidly keep believing that lightning doesn't start forest fires?

You and your antiscience buddies CO and BL still think the earth is flat!
And apparently that lightning doesn't cause forest fires!
And you wonder why I call it agrisilly?

"The Lobstick fire is now 19,000 hectares in size, which is approximately the size of the City of Regina or 38 football fields.

It is one of ten active wildfires in the province burning Saturday.

The minister responsible for Saskatchewan Public Safety Agency (SPSA) Michael Weger said the blaze, which started between Duck Lake and MacDowall, but has since crossed the North Saskatchewan River, is not contained, which means suppression action is taking place, but the fire is still expected to grow in size.

The blaze, which was caused by lightning, was reported on Tuesday at 3:10 p.m. and Weger said SPSA staff were dispatched by 3:26 p.m."
