We should put in the air as many CO2 as possible, yep. What could go wrong?. This valuable fertile soil that need 200 years to build and all the CO2 accumulated must be released... because religious thinking.
Or we could try something different and jail the arsonists. Respect the soil and let the forest accumulate water and include thousands of new species.
While it seems wildly counter-intuitive, burning, done properly is usually a net carbon increase.
Many, many ecosystems require fire for their life-cycles. Without reasonably regular fires, some species can go extinct.
The soil fertility, for example, in Australia is so poor, and there's not enough moisture for fungi etc to break down the leaf-litter, that unless there is a fire valuable nutrients remain unavailable and it impedes growth.
