    While the cause of this fire was an idiot with a burning car, the root problem is much more corporate.
    The Logging industrial complex has replaced countless of our 'Forests' with monocrop pine plantations, which get killed by pine beetle, and then the standing dead trees go up in flames the next summer. Logging megacorporations drain the wetlands, destroy the soil humus that stores humidity well into the dry season, and erodes our topsoil that takes millennia to properly replace.
    This abuse of our forests increases both flooding AND forest fire events, we have allowed billionaires to steal our 'forests' and turn them into cash crops. Pine Plantations that don't have the soil humus, wetlands that a old growth forest would. water absorbing (and ergo cooling) properties that a tall, healthy, biodiverse, well shaded old growth forest has. the destruction of biodiverse natural spaces is accelerated by widespread use of pesticides to kill all the broad leaf trees since they grow slower (and ergo make less money for these billionaires). The monocrop pine plantations we incorrectly still call 'forests' catch pine beetle en-mass, and then go up in flames in the heat of the summer since most of them are now dead and dry.
    Write your politicians about the unsustainable actions of logging megacorporations who are pillaging rare ecosystems as fast as possible and shipping the unprocessed logs overseas. This is NOT a sustainable supply chain of industries, this is billionaires pillaging public resources as fast as possible. Sustainable logging is great, but these are not a family wood lot thats burning. the eco-crimes that NATO encourages is destroying a long term asset for a quick buck. Ecotourism alone would be worth more than the 1 time logging of a 500 year old tree.
    BC Timber Sales and its ilk are what you get when you cross Rhino Poachers with billion dollar, taxpayer-subsidized, for-profit, Corporate Industrial Complexes with titanic negative externalities.

      Likely from one in geostationary orbit, since you can easily see pixels (which means its likely too high up to see in full detail) If they used satellites in lower orbit the map would likely have been more detailed (I think Google Maps uses these for their detailed satellite map) but this is just a guess

      That's what happens when you don't log or graze and you let tree diseases run rampant. You end up with massive fuel sources with nothing to do but wait for a spark. It has nothing to do with "climate change". Geological records indicated we had much larger fires in N. America prior to the industrial revolution and settlement.
      In all my years living in Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas, and Kentucky, I've never even heard of a large fire like this here. Most all the land is private and is logged and grazed. We have trees that are older than my parents on our property because we clean up the understory and we don't let pests and diseases kill the whole forest. Goats, pigs, and cows mow down all the fuel, making mini fire breaks between the trees. The understory is grassy pasture with huge poplars, oaks, and hickories providing shade.

    Gaslighting at it's finest...some guy starts a fire with a burning car and every single news outlet still blames it on 'climate change'...lololol.

      Fires don't start because of climate change, they spread because of climate change

      Could climate change affect the conditions that allow a fire to blow up this big? Or increase the frequency of the bad conditions?

      Trees didn't CAUSE the fire, but they've certainly provided plenty of dry fuel for the fire.

      Dense understory fuel loads and lack of preventative fire maintenance is what “causes” these fires. That is primary variable number one. There are many others, but this reason alone is at the top of the list.
