Wildfires, very much in the news recently, have tapered downward significantly over the recent decades, contradicting the doom and gloom spread by climate alarmists and media. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

German science editor Axel Bojanowski posted a chart at Twitter<\/a> depicting the annual global total wildfire carbon emissions in metric tonnes since 2003:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wild fire emissions have trended down globally over the past 20 years. That\u2019s good news, which however we never get to hear in the mainscream media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mr. Bojanowski also posted data on Canadian forest fires<\/a>, where here as well we seen no alarming overall trend at all:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also climate science critic and alarmism debunker Tony Heller also recently showed<\/a> that wildfire acreage burned in the USA has fallen dramatically since the early 20th century:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
