Some environmentalists may be partialy responsible for the high fuel loads by stopping some logging is some managed lands but that responsability is miniscule compared to those that insisted on fighting all of the fires even in unmanaged lands. That responsability doesn't lie with environmantalists.

Environmantalists disagreed with most of the fire supression as your previous post describes. If we had listened to them the fire season wouldn't have been devestating. Therefore it is false to blame them for the bad fire season.

It may be true to blame them for a lack of forest products but not the bad fire season.

There is no lack of forest products though. In fact our government has raised the prices of forest products in the US by trying to impose restrictions Canadian lumber and lower supply to raise prices because the Bush admin clearely believed that there were too many forest products in American markets.

What about fighting all the fires in managed lands, only to have them later turned into unmanaged lands by the environmentalists?
