The process of global warming and the destructive nature of wildfires have created a deadly cycle in which one constantly contributes to the other. Forest fires and global warming have created a dangerous relationship. The link between these two forces has become clear in recent years.

The increase in forest fires can now be seen as a factor which contributes to global warming. Trees, in the carbon cycle, are labeled a “sink” or a store for carbon. The ability of trees to store carbon dioxide has helped to reduce the amount of CO2 that is pumped into the atmosphere.

Question

The process of global warming and the destructive nature of wildfires have created a deadly cycle in which one constantly contributes to the other. Forest fires and global warming have created a dangerous relationship. The link between these two forces has become clear in recent years. As the climate become warmer, forest will become drier, spawning the perfect environment for fires. In addition, as forest fires continue and gain intensity, the trees release more carbon into the atmosphere which contributes to the greenhouse effect and which therefore causes global warming.

The increase in forest fires can now be seen as a factor which contributes to global warming. Trees, in the carbon cycle, are labeled a “sink” or a store for carbon. The ability of trees to store carbon dioxide has helped to reduce the amount of CO2 that is pumped into the atmosphere. But now that more trees are being burned through increased forest fires, this stored carbon is being released and the CO2 becomes part of the greenhouse gases that drive the greenhouse effects. So, we believe that extra fires intensify global warming. Furthermore, carbon is released in the decomposition of the trees after the fire. There is no doubt that global warming and forest fires are linked to rising temperatures.

Global warming is a process which has been occurring for years and whose effects have been more intensively feit by 15 aIl of living creatures.
