What are people's opinions on wildfires in California?
As a (somewhat educated) Californian, my humble opinion is that they are a deadly prerequisite for new life. Lightning strikes account for very few of the wildfires that occur each year. SmokeyBear would say that 90% of wildfires (or more) are caused by human carelessness. An arboreal specialist would tell us that each tree harbors at least 100 lives. Proper management of our forests (including control of the underbrush) would reduce the number of wildfires each year. Without the cleansing effect of wildfires, forests would be unable to evolve.

As soon as this question is answered it will be wrong, because there are new wildfires every day somewhere in the world. When it is summer in America, there will be wildfires.
