Actually, controlled burns have been and continue to be a valuable management tool. Many farmers burn their crop residues and then till all those nutrients back into the soil. In forestry, controlled burns are often done as a way to prevent such massive, out-of-any-possible-control wildfires.
We live in a wetlands area and I've seen times when the grass was dying, yet the water table was so high that you would leave behind a wet footprint with each step. So in our area, burns happen quite often. In more arid regions, the best approach may be to selectively remove brush by mechanical means.
We have an old and VERY drafty farmhouse, so needless to say we're not thrilled whenever there's a burn within 10 miles of us when the wind blows smoke our way. On the other hand, people up here (for the most part) are very good about doing controlled burns the right way.
