Forest Fires and it's implications 

In the past year  2019, over 100 forest fires have been reported. Many more go unreported and yet it brings so much adversity to the ecosystem.The ecosystem is hurt in a way;every living thing is affected from plants,animals,microorganisms animals nd even the soil.In as much as trees are grown to cover the burnt areas,some of the indigenous species are killed and never to be found again.

When the frequency of forest fires in a given area is high, the consequences can be devastating. ... Forest fires increase carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and climate change. In addition, ashes destroy much of the nutrients and erode the soil, causing flooding and landslides.

Forest fires are bad news to environmentalists  because  it brings mockery to their efforts in environmental conservation but there are the arrogant and carefree tycoons who feel that forests should not exist for their selfish investments.

Oftentimes the wild animals tend to loose their lives when trapped in the fires and so much vegetation is lost more so when the weather is windy the fire will spread so fast.Most of the time the water catchment areas are greatly affected bring about  dry rivers and change in weather patterns.

A current example is Tsavo National Park,Big or small, every effort counts. Tsavo Park has been burning for weeks now! Nothing much is being done by the people in power. We are not seeing much media reporting on what's happening to Tsavo! This shouldn't be taken lightly. Teams on the ground need support and how I wish something could be done.As environmentalists let's be in the front line in echoing the plight of importance of avoiding forest fires at all costs. The lives of all living things matter alot
