TPO 20 integrated let it burn policy affects the parks in three ways first it damages the trees and vegetation in parks second it kills wildlife third it has a negative affect on the local economy

The reading and the lceture are both contradicting each other, in terms of forest fired that occured in Yellowstone in 1988. More specifically, the penman of the article mentiones that forest fire in yellow stone was massive and damaged tramendeously to land of the fores due to the policy of "let it burn". Accordingly, she proposed three thoeries in support of change in policy in the Yellowstone forest. However, the lecturer negates these arguments presented in the passage and provides some evidence to refute them.

According to the article, the first dispute focuses on the fact that in 1988, fire in yellowstone produced devasted effect on the land, and extensive amount of plants and vegetation died due to that. Nonetheless, the speaker negates this by stating that massive phase of Yellowstone had strikling outcomes in the upcoming years. In fact, it allowed small plant to grow in a open land of forest and seeds which needed high sunlight was able to florished in the land. Therefore, the previous destructive episode enhanced diversity in the land of yellowstone.

Moreover, another point of debate heighlights that many animal was not able to survived in the fire and it which lead to change in the food chains among animals. Neverethless, the lecturer rebutes by asserting that as a matter of the food chain became stronger than earlier since certain small animals life rabit got an opportunity to live in without the fear of wild animals. Hence, it helped to recover the population growth in the forest similary the way vegetation came back to normal.

Finally, yet importantly, the last text explains that many tourists relunctant to visit the national park, and thereby, the local economy went down drastically. On the contrary, the professor undermines the point and describes that fire was occured due to combining factors worked together at that time such as strong wind with rain fall, however, it never appeared again afterthat. On top of that visitors also started visitng place in the very next year. Therefore, there is no need to change the policy in the forest.
