Some forest fires burn away dead stuff that allows for more and healthier regrowth, so yes, but sometimes.
Forest fires help people because they give off nutrients to the plants that we eat. If the forest fire lasts too long the plants will die.
Forest fires are helpful in succession by clearing out older vegetation, making way for new growth and allowing for the regeneration of certain plant species that are adapted to fire. Fires can also release nutrients stored in vegetation, which can enrich the soil and promote the growth of new plant life. Additionally, some tree species require heat from fires to promote seed germination.
Benefits of forest fires include promoting new growth by clearing out old vegetation, recycling nutrients back into the soil, and controlling insect populations. Hazards of forest fires include destruction of wildlife habitat, loss of property, air pollution, and potential risks to human health.
Forest fires can happen anywhere
When fires are suppressed, forests may become dense with accumulated vegetation, leading to increased competition for resources like sunlight and nutrients. This can result in reduced biodiversity, weakened forest resilience to future fires, and potentially increased severity of wildfires due to the build-up of fuel on the forest floor. Additionally, some tree species that are adapted to fire may decline in the absence of fires, altering the forest composition.
Oh No Forest Fires was created in 2007.
Oh No Forest Fires ended in 2010.

Three long-term effects of forest fires include loss of biodiversity due to habitat destruction, changes in soil composition and nutrients, and increased risk of erosion and landslides due to decreased vegetation cover.

Texas had over 50 forest fires in 2010
from fires in the forests! lol
