Why don't they use oxygen bombs to put out forest fires?
Oxygen is a component that fuels fires, so using oxygen bombs would actually make the fire burn hotter and faster. Oxygen bombs would worsen rather than help extinguish forest fires.
How do forest fires disrupt the carbon and oxygen cycles?
Forest fires release stored carbon back into the atmosphere in the form of greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming. They also reduce the number of trees available to absorb carbon dioxide, disrupting the balance of the carbon cycle. Additionally, the smoke from forest fires can lead to decreased oxygen levels in the air, affecting both human and animal health.
Does a fire have oxygen?
Yes, fires require oxygen to burn. The process of combustion involves the interaction of fuel, heat, and oxygen to sustain the fire. This is why fires can be extinguished by removing any one of these three elements.
How much oxygen does a fire need to ignite?
Fires require oxygen to ignite and sustain combustion. In general, fires need around 16% to 17% of oxygen in the air to burn. This oxygen level is typically found in the Earth's atmosphere.
Does carbon dioxide extinguish fires?
Yes, carbon dioxide can extinguish fires by displacing oxygen and removing heat from the fire.

Would a forest fire affect the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
Forest fires increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
