Forest fires are destructive. Right?

Some people (the greenies) are obsessed with protecting Earth at all costs. Even if it means killing themselves off. And one of their enemies in “protecting the world” is a forest fire. When you ask them why a forest fire, they will tell you that when a fire comes it destroys all those trees that are putting oxygen into the air, thereby allowing more CO2 and other waste to take over the atmosphere! Oh horrors! Which sounds logical to me, so what's wrong?

To answer that question we need to know what good a forest fire does. First, a forest fire helps to remove the brush and clutter and leaves and stuff that tend to build up and choke out and prohibit the new plants from growing. But when a fire comes along, it removes all those hindrances to new growth, and provides a clean floor that the seeds can push through as they were designed to do.
Another thing we need to consider is the pine cone. These cones will sit on a tree, unopenable. You can hit them with a hammer, or jump on them, but they just will not open! Until a fire comes along. For some reason unknown to me, when a fire comes, it will cause these cones to open their jaws, and after the fire leaves the seeds will come rolling on out and replace the seeds that were all burnt. Wow! Talk about a testimony to God's plan! When destruction comes in the form of a fire, God uses it and not only does the brush get removed, but new seeds just appear out of nowhere. To me, that is one more reason to look at creation and know that God created it.
