Re: How much CO2 is released in a square mile forest fire?

Take the amount of vegetation per square mile and multiply by 44/12 assuming all of it burns. The amount of vegetation varies with the type of forest. Reduce the figure by 10 to 30% to account for moisture for the type of forest.

Is that close enough?
