If you wanna blame forest fires on anything blame it on fire suppression. These forests are biologically "designed" to burn as part of their lifecycle. Preventing them from burning to protect the surrounding real estate from smoke and minor fire damage has lead to insane fires due to massive understory growth providing literal tons of flammable material.

I can try and find some of the work and calculations I did in college regarding the topic (as related to the NJ Pine Barrens) if you're interested. It has the second highest risk for catastrophic fire in the country behind Cali.
