Wildland fire was identified as a top climate-change risk facing Canada  and poses a challenge to communities and fire management . Projected area burned in Canada using RCP2.6 will increase annual fire suppression costs to 1 billion CAD the by end of century  and to 1.4 billion CAD using RCP8.5  . In the USA, cumulative costs of fire response through 2100 are projected to be 23 billion USD  yr-1 under RCP8.5 . Lower-emissions scenarios reduce these future cumulative costs by 55 million USD  to 7-9 billion USD  . Fire increases from future warming will reduce timber supply in eastern Canada  and increase post-fire sedimentation in watersheds of the western USA .
