Climate change almost wipes out decline in global area burned by wildfires - Carbon Brief
changes in population distribution and land use over the 20th century – including forest fragmentation and the conversion of land for urban development and agriculture – have suppressed wildfires, driving down global burned area by 19%.
However, this decline has been hindered by human-caused warming, which has expanded the area burned by 16% through increasingly hot and dry conditions across much of the world.
If we nuked the atmosphere we could create nuclear winter and cause Global cooling
Sure, but the most of the ideas people would be happy about involve keeping the bulk of the human population alive, along with the rest of the ecosystem.
And most people want a utopia, at a certain point however we have to acknowledge the billions guaranteed to die from the status quo aren't destined better or quicker deaths than those killed by whatever solution we choose now.
