A team of scientists from the USDA Forest Service and the University of California, Davis, assessed the size, severity and frequency of wildfires on four national forests?Klamath, Mendocino, Shasta-Trinity and Six Rivers?of northwestern California from 1910 to 2008 and their effects on the ecosystem. Fire severity is measured by its impact on resources such as watersheds, wildlife habitat, soils, vegetation and forest products. ?High? severity patches within fires are areas where greater than 95 percent of the forest canopy was killed.
The study?s key findings include:
- Despite an increase in total acres burned, there was no trend in the proportion of fires burning at high severity, which indicates that fires have not been getting worse.
- Most areas burned since 1987 have been at low to moderate severity.

The fact is that there is no proof that
anything is getting worse because of global warming. In fact most real world data shows the opposite.
And for things that do
appear to be worse at this present time there are a lot of other factors to consider other than global warming. Besides appearances can be deceiving because most people tend to think anecdotally and in short time frames.
If your idea of science is blaming everything on global warming then you fail at science.
Stop the bullshit. You know, because: Truth.
