A lot of beautiful forestland is being burned.



True, but the forests need to occasionally burn to pave way for healthy new growth. It's the cycle of life, believe it or not.

Same reason cane farmers are burning now. It adds all kind of nutrients to the ground. In forests, it is Mother Nature's way of killing pests too (beetles and bugs that do damage to trees).

Sure, but when the majority of these fires are due to arson, it is not exactly Mother Nature doing her thing.
