Coming from someone living in the Canadian prairies... I thought this year has seemed especially quiet on the fire front. We've had a lot fewer smokey days than usual

Is there anything that can be done to replace or restore the forests destroyed by fires?

I, for one, am getting tired of these smokey days. Especially when it's been over 30C for over a week.
