Climate Change An Alarm For Destruction, Know what are the reasons for forest fires?

Summer season is very difficult for humans as well as animals and forests. At this time humans are boiling, but for forests also the month of April to June is called 'fire season'. Since fire can help with underbrush removal, nitrogen cycling, and the growth of specific plant species, forest fires are a normal occurrence in many ecosystems. But there are a few reasons why forest fires may appear more common or "normal" in modern times: Climate Change: Drier conditions can be brought about in many forested places by changes in climate patterns, such as increased temperatures and modified precipitation patterns. Fires are more likely to start and spread under these dry conditions. Human Activity: Fires in woods can be started by human activity such as intentional arson, negligent cigarette disposal, and abandoned campfires. The likelihood of unintentional fires rises with the growth of human populations and the number of people who visit forests for enjoyment. Practices for Forest Management: Prescribed burns are one type of controlled fire used to limit fuel accumulation and lower the likelihood of future, more severe fires. But occasionally, these controlled burns can spiral out of control if they are not properly cared for.
