I do not think these people understand the relationship between the highly oxidized carbon in the Amazonian Terra Preta soil and the intense heat needed to create the same carbon biochar from a forest fire. It seems the system would be healthier if allowed to burn. Here is a link to a firefighting effort. Thoughts?

Agree. The photos I've seen all show clear cut areas that have been previously logged and/or cleared for farming as burning and not the untouched rain forests. Burning is Natures way of regenerating and renewing.

No because it won't be aloud to regenerate it will be used for farming. It wasn't a natural fire it was started deliberately to clear the forest but it got out of hand.
