Forests are incredibly good at storing carbon, in both soils and plants. When forests burn, that carbon is released into the atmosphere and contributes to greenhouse gases (mostly as carbon dioxide). Normally when a forest regrows after a fire, it’s able to capture that carbon dioxide and store it again.
