Actually, my buddy up in Oregon watched his family's hunting land get ravaged because the forest was too dense from years of no burns... He mentioned how the fire crews had drone maps but were stuck in old protocols, just like @robertmartinez hinted at with the whole balance thing. Seeing those skeletal trees standing where a controlled burn could've saved the soil... it's a gut punch. The data's there to work with nature, but the institutional inertia is real. We keep treating fire like an enemy to be defeated instead of a tool to be managed. His story's just one example of how playing catch-up after a disaster misses the point entirely.
