The US Forest Service and the US Fish and Wildlife need to be fully funded. They need to be vigilant to the protects of our most precious lands. Forests will hold water in the ground and encourage water vapor in the atmosphere. Our giants, the Sequoias and Redwoods have their own ecosystems. So long as the canopy is dense there will be water vapor to protect them.
Smoking couldn't be more correct, only you can prevent forest fires. Does anyone pay attention to the reasons why these fires begin?

Humans and Wildfire
As many as 90 percent of wildland fires in the United States are caused by humans. Some human-caused fires result from campfires left unattended, the burning of debris, negligently discarded cigarettes and intentional acts of arson. The remaining 10 percent are started by lightning or lava.- See more at: http://www.nps.gov/fire/wildland-fire/learning-center/fire-in-depth/wildfire-causes.cfm#sthash.6qqdBn9g.dpufHumans and Wildfir
