Satellite data confirms global fire trends are worsening, while native trees like junipers and ponderosa pines are dying off at alarming rates. Monsoon rains may offer temporary relief but could trigger deadly flash floods in burned areas. Experts warn that without tackling climate change head-on—through emissions cuts—the region’s forests and communities face irreversible damage.
