I wonder how bad it'll get before we get some kind of prescribed burn policy. Smoky summers suuuuck. Having your house or town burn down in an out of control wildfire sucks even more.
They already exist all over the western US. In AZ the majority of smokey days come from prescription burns or natural fires that the forest service manage like a prescribed burn
Also if the wildfires that started naturally were allowed to burn (if not threatening the public) then we don't get that huge build up of dead wood getting dryer and dryer leading to a super scorcher that nothing can stop.
