  High-elevation forests now burning more frequently than any time in the past 2,000 years   As climate change dries out high-elevation forests, they become more flammable and are burning with increasing frequency. Depicted is the Druid Complex, which included six lightning-sparked fires that started inside Yellowstone National Park in 2013. Credit: Mike Lewelling / National Park Service
