Logging in the Australia leads to more bush fires.
Nearly 15 years ago research was being conducted that showed logging in Australia would lead to hotter and drier summers.
A decade ago a joint US, Canadian and Australian research group stated that logging “greatly increase the severity of fires”. In 2013 imperial studies showed logging was reducing rainfall in Western Australia by 55% to 62%.
A few years later in 2016 the Australian government stated it “uses detailed satellite data to track and report, on a national scale and by state and territory, the greenhouse gas emissions from land clearing and regrowth of vegetation”
