This report could have been better if it had been more aware of the current awareness that the early fire fighting to put out all fires led to our current circumstance of too much undergrowth in forests. This led to fires growing too fast and too hot. Fires could race up the undergrowth to the tree tops leading to crowning fires in which fires run along the tree tops. On windy days such fires could outrun a man. Now combined with the hotter drier conditions of climate change these fires are more dangerous and explosive thxn anything that used to happen. These fires repeatedly put whole towns and risk. And unfortunately there is no end in sight or signs of these fires slowing down.
