Worldwide wildfires annually emit 72.8 billion metric tonnes of CO2, very conservatively equivalent to burning 8.27 trillion gallons of gasoline or 337 times 2005's total recovered petroluem.

Cut back your energy use 10% and save the world for the more deserving.
It has been pointed out to you a few times that the areas cleared by forest fires become CO2 sinks in later years. So, given some sort of steady-state, the forest fires are not a net-contributor to the CO2 load, when time-averaged.

I must have missed your answer to this, could you repost it?
