====Forest Fires====

Rising Global temperature may cause forest fires and firestorms to occur on larger scale, and more regularly. This releases more stored carbon into the atmosphere than the carbon cycle can naturally re-absorb, creating a positive feedback loop. (EPA: Global Warming: Impacts: Forests)

Forest Fires

Rising Global temperature may cause forest fires and firestorms to occur on larger scale, and more regularly. This releases more stored carbon into the atmosphere than the carbon cycle can naturally re-absorb, as well as reducing the overall forest area on the planet, creating a positive feedback loop.
