According to the National Interagency Fire Center, 9.4 million acres burned in the US this year. This is down 80% since the 1930’s.
Indicator 3.16: Area and percent of forest affected by abiotic agents

And forest fires are down 90% since CO2 was at pre-industrial levels – when an area larger than the state of California burned every year.
There is no correlation between forest fires and atmospheric CO2 – but excellent correlation between fires and extreme heat = which peaked in the 1930’s.
Rather than doing actual science, government climate scientists prefer to alter data to match their worthless models.
Hi Tony.
Have you tried to access figure 16.1 on the net recently? Here’s the link

Comes up blank. Looks like figure 16.1 has been disappeared.
But the WayBack Machine still works (-:
Oh, I see your link is to the WayBack Machine.
Send Jerry Brown a link to this post – I’m sure he’ll love it!
And that link is the reason why Tony Heller and his material will NEVER appear on the PBS NewsHour’s analysis of global warming.

Back when Harding, Coolidge and Herbert Hoover were sworn to enforce the Prohibition Amendment Sharia law, lots of wood-burning stills operated in forests. I am surprised there aren’t more Saracen berserker arson attacks nowwadays. Even if the conflagration were to burn the faithful arsonist to a crisp, there’s the consolation prize of all those underage virgin necrophiliacs.
Even though there is a link to newer data, the total acreage burned graph is 10 years out of date, so I can’t really use it as a reference.
