The visualization shown below indicates the number of wildfires with respect to GDP and population. It can be clearly seen from the
visualization that there is no specific trend of wildfires impacting the population as the population has remained steady through the years 2010 to
2016 even when the wildfire numbers have increased or decreased.
While in case of GDP, even though the wildfires affect human habitats, animal
habitats, businesses, atmosphere and farming, there is a lesser impact on the GDP of the wildfires as USA’s GDP is always on the rise as shown in the
visualization. Loss of life, house, business accounts to a huge amount of money but that negligibly affects the GDP of the nation as the number of
businesses shut give rise to more new businesses to open up and the age old wildfire seasons continue to cause destruction of many folds and keeps
on increasing every year with a minimal effect on GDP but a humongous effect on atmosphere, human lives and animal lives.
