Forest planting for commercial forestry is not the same as forest planting for urban improvement. The goals and means are different.

Climate change and forestry practices can both take blame for the fire cycles. Commercial foresters have been following these practices for generations and it only started becoming a major issue as climate conditions changed... Practices must adapt, but nobody likes change.

Note people in Japan are doing some things that seem radical, for instance replacing urban trees that produce allergy inducing pollen.
