Global wildfire area decreased in 2025 but wealthy regions faced devastating megafires
A 2025 study found that while the total global area burned by wildfires decreased to the second-lowest level since 2002, wealthier regions like California, Canada, Europe, and South Korea experienced catastrophic 'megafires' that caused significant loss of life, property, and infrastructure, highlighting a growing disconnect between burned area and real-world impacts driven by climate change and land-use patterns.
