“In short, since wildfires are declining, it is impossible for climate change to be making wildfires more frequent or severe.” – This is an expert comment on the quote below – all copied from this link
The IPCC says in Chapter 12 of its Sixth Assessment Report there has been no observable change in the wildfire regime. “There is low confidence in any long-term increases in meteorological drought or fire weather at the global scale,” states the IPCC. The organization goes on say that, based on trends and models forecasts, it does not expect any observable change in wildfire behavior, numbers, intensity, or acreage lost, to arise by 2050 or even by 2100.
On this point, the IPCC would seem to be on solid ground since satellite data sets from NASA and the European Space Agency both show a decline in wildfires in recent decades.
The long and short of it, since this nothingburger subject is not worth the time, space and effort to comment further, is that someone or some authoritative power in the world is trying to pull the wool over our eyes that wildfires represent some sort of danger to the planet or to ourselves, caused by climate change and aided by our own foolishness. It is not so caused and we ourselves are also neither to blame nor at danger from the natural phenomenon – especially, but not exclusively, if we also live by nature’s rules – which few of us, if any, really does any more.
