they burn down bad plants that will cause the plants to die and they burn down the trees to create more nutrients in the soil.Also some plants need fires so that thier hard cover or seed can melt in order for them to grow.

Fire can be good in several ways. Some plants can only germinate after fire burns and scars the seeds. Fire also helps to deposit nutrients back into the soil that were held in plant biomass. Fire can also help keep the forest healthy by clearing over grown underbrush and thinning the number of trees in the forest allowing for less competition for light and nutrients from the soil by the survivors of the fire.

Fire can be like a restart button. Clear out all the brush and scrub, and start again. Plants in these communities either become adapted to survive fires, or they become adapted to restarting after a fire. Fires can be helpful to get rid of plants that "don't belong." and allows the plants that "do belong" to access the resources (minerals, water, etc.) that these "outsiders" were "wasting."

Fires (before man) were natural, periodic events and when they come they clear areas leaving a mineral rich ash which nourishes the new plants that grow afterwards. They mean that areas of the environment are open with new pants (after a fire) while other areas are densely overgrown, providing a range of different habitats for animal life. In places where wildfires are common, certain species evolved to take advantage of them (growing thick bark that protects the trees - as with redwoods and cork trees or having seeds that need fire to make them germinate).

Fire removes underbrush that can prevent the infiltration of water, helps some seeds to germinate and returned carbon to the soil.

Fire can be very beneficial to ecosystem development. This is because sometimes ecosystems are unstable and need a new start in order to thrive again.
