The reading and the lecture discuss a policy so-called “let it burn” which means that forests can burn themselves without causing many negative consequences, but the forests fires in Yellowstone provoked compelling effects so as to replace this policy for an extinguishing one. The author believes that the "Let it burn"'s damaging effects are massive and provides three. The professor brings into question the claims made in the article. He considers that the current policy is creative and he highlights the postfire positive consequences.
First, the author comes up with the idea that the fire in Yellowstone deteriorated in great level the park’s trees and other plant species, indeed, it is mentioned that the smoke and flames affected trees either charring or blackening them. However, the lecturer argues that after the fire Yellowstone became more diverse because of the open and shadow space, therefore, new species started to grow there.
Second, the author states that the park’s animal life was attacked by the fire as well. The article notes that smaller species could not escape and their habitats became inhospitable, as a result, food chains were destroyed. Meanwhile, the professor rebuts this argument by pointing out that the high level of heat created more opportunities for wildlife and for plants. Besides, new animals such as rabbits and others started to grow there which turned the food chain stronger.
Finally, the author contends that the touristic value of the park was compromised because of the fires, consequently, the local economy underwent negative results. The lecturer, on the other hand, posits that this problem does not happen every year and since 1988 there were not more fires, so it cannot affect tourism.
