Default Just letting forest fires burn?

It seems that they are very hard to extinguish, there are lots of them and they are natures way of renewing a forest, why don't we just let them go?

Can we cut/log all the trees we need for housing and still leave the forest fires?

We can work as hard as humanly possible and with just a breath of wind the fire takes off again.

I don't think what we are doing is working. I guess we will have to stop building houses/cities right next to a burnable forest.

What have I got wrong? Is there a way to fight fires that we haven't tried?

Lots of smoke here in Cocrane to-day.
