Ironically Arson Reduces Wildfires

 Forests in north america burn. It's simply part of the biome. 

 When an arsonist successfully sets a fire, one of two things happen. The forest was going to burn anyway, and they simply moved up the timeline - functionally, they accomplish nothing. The forest wasn't quite ready to burn naturally yet, but the arsonist clears up the undergrowth, preventing an intense crown fire. 

 Haha, lol. All these guys trying to mortally immanentize the supermortal climate change eschaton, and failing as badly as it is possible to fail. And going to jail occasionally.

 ProTip: if you don't like getting flooded, don't build your house on the flood plain. Maybe consider farms, kek?

 ProTip: if you don't like getting your house burnt, don't build it in a firestorm forest, rofl. I hear trees can be used for lumber...or hunting grounds...

jasper videos made me think wood doesn't burn.
relative to every other material used today, "a tree" is probably somewhere near the bottom
cars burn, batteries burn, clothes burn, furnitures burn, a tree does not burn, the wood frame is the only thing left standing at the end rather than the other way around.
"this is where mom an dad used to live" streets, with cars, and empty flat land... and tree and bushes and grass.
"ill huff and ill puff and ill blow your house down" brick is best, that's why foam made of oil carved and painted to look like bricks is everywhere. but nature is not tricked.

do non-dead trees actually die from fire? i'm starting to think they don't. or, there's a pretty good chance at surviving it. canada already claims fires can survive underground under permafrost for months at a time, why not trees through fire. i don't know how many trees jasper had before the fire but it obviously has trees after, in contrast to buildings, which it obviously has none.

Raw stone masonry is best, but you don't even see that as an option because it's too good.

Well actually geopolymer or whatever they're calling it now is best, but that technology was lost, so they can't even suppress it.
