Controlled burns have been a tool that forest managers use for years now. Many ecosystems depend on periodic burning, but for a lot of reasons wildfires are undesirable when they happen near places where people live. Controlled burns are a way to promote ecosystem health without endangering human lives.
Just curious - what is your country doing to study the issue and come up with solutions? Forest fires are necessary in nature, and at least this is a controlled one with the intent of being studied.
Forest fires are necessary for the kinds of 'primordial forests' we found in the US and assumed were constructed entirely by natural processes.
It's closer to the truth to say that they were being stewarded with a subtlety we refused to grasp. One of those mechanisms being fire.
