accuracy of the ''let it burn'' policy.

The text and the lecture offer two opposing views on the accuracy of the ''let it burn'' policy. While the text lists reasons to be suspicious of this policy, the professor counters those specific policy points. First, the professor said that scorched areas changed to wasteland are appropriate floors for growing new plants. However, the text asserts that fires had bad impacts on vegetation. Secondly, the lecture contends that new plants, which grow in scorched areas, are good foods for some animals like rabbits. In contrast, the author of the passage claimed that fire has an unfavorable impact on wildlife. For example, huge animals like deer and elk escape from the fire. Finally, the lecturer mentions that this fire disaster becomes a problem if it occurs once a year. But it wouldn't happen because these kinds of disasters need rare conditions like strong winds and low rainfall. On the other hand, the reading passage states that it has a ruining effect on the tourism industry. It causes visitors don't come to this area.
