basic forest mismanagement has nothing to do with climate change. We agressivly suppress the natural fire cycle which leads to excessive loads of dead material that the annual fire cycles would have cleaned out, and then we don’t let anyone go in and prune what the fires would have done naturally.
That’s how ladder fires happen. Forest mismanagement. NOT climate change. Even if the climate wasn’t changing, we would be in the same situation eventually. Sooner or later the excess material WILL burn up.
