Fort McMurray fire’s incredible carbon pulse may account for 10 per cent of Canada’s emissions
Chris Mooney, Washington Post | May 20, 2016 5:56 PM ET

He said he generally estimates that for every hectare of forest land consumed in a fire like this one, about 170 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions – so dubbed because they actually include not only carbon dioxide, but also methane and nitrous oxide, two additional greenhouse gases – head into the atmosphere

...Granted, for emissions, the fire is nothing like the fires in Indonesia last year. Those contributed over a billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions to the atmosphere, according to van der Werf’s calculations, because they burned into deep stores of carbon-rich peat.
