Explanation:
Forest fires: Each year, fires burn millions of hectares of forest worldwide. Fires are a part of nature but degraded forests are particularly vulnerable. These include heavily logged rainforests, forests on peat soils, or where forest fires have been suppressed for years allowing unnatural accumulation of vegetation that makes the fire burn more intensely. The resulting loss has wide-reaching consequences on biodiversity, climate, and the economy

Answer:
- Deforestation is frequently blamed on forest fires. This could be the case with slash-and-burn farming or illegal forest fires for other purposes, both of which are unfortunately widespread in places with high biodiversity value.
- Wildfires contribute to air pollution in the surrounding area, which can have an impact on regional air quality. Large volumes of carbon dioxide, black carbon, brown carbon, and ozone precursors are released into the atmosphere during wildfires.
