Why are forest fires in India becoming more frequent?

The increase is primarily driven by climate change, which causes prolonged heatwaves and drier forest conditions, making vegetation highly flammable.

How do forest fires affect air quality in India?

Forest fires release massive amounts of particulate matter (PM2.5) and toxic gases, which can travel long distances and cause severe respiratory issues for humans.

What can be done to prevent India forest fires?

Solutions include using satellite technology for early detection, reforestation with fire-resistant species, and empowering local communities in forest management.
