In 2023, Canadian and U.S. wildlands fires scorched roughly 20.0 million hectares (~50 million acres) of land, nearly 10 times more than 2022.
Affected trees would have consumed over 90 megatons of CO2 annually.
In 2023, Canadian and U.S. wildlands fires released 1,000 mega-tonnes of carbon dioxide, doubling a previous annual record.
Canadian wildland fire management agencies spent between; C$800 million to C$1.4 billion annually over the last 10 years.
The total economic and environmental cost of fire to Canada is estimated to be C$11 billion per year
The total annual economic burden of wildfires in the United States is between US$394 billion and US$893 billion which is equivalent to between 2-4% of U.S. GDP
