FAQ
Oregon sets modern record for acres burned from wildfires A total of 1,399 fires have burned 1.49 million acres or 2,200 square miles, surpassing the 2012 total of 1.2 million acres and the 2020 total of 1.14 million acres.
Climate change, along with invasive annual grasses and human ignitions, have led to an increase in area burned, longer fire seasons, and more frequent and severe wildfires in inland Northwest rangelands. Since 1900, average annual temperatures in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington have increased by nearly 2° F.
Whether sparked by lightning or human-caused, wildfires can harm fish and wildlife habitat and damage nearby homes or other structures. They're often costly to extinguish and can negatively affect air and water quality.
Cooling with water is one of the most typical ways of putting out a fire. The fuel is cooled until it produces insufficient vapor to ignite. The drop in temperature is achieved by applying enough water to create a negative heat balance.

The effects of smoke from wildfires can range from eye and respiratory tract irritation to more serious disorders, including reduced lung function, bronchitis, exacerbation of asthma and heart failure, and premature death.
The mechanics used to suppress fires outside of wilderness can include use of bulldozers, masticators, and other tools to cut line, in addition to dropping fire ant.
Wildfires in the Northwest have increased since the 1980s. Scientists attribute this to human-caused climate change. This means more bad air days from wildfire smoke in Multnomah County.
