It's natural for forests to burn from time to time. Preventing such is actually much worse in the long run.

  The current frequency of major fires due to climate change is not natural, and we have to compensate.

    I don't think climate change is the dominating variable here, like the article describes, the devastating fires are a product of our encroachment into forests and aggressive firefighting practices. If you have some references though, I'd be very interested in learning more.
