China has been promoting the process of landscaping for many years, and forestry has enjoyed accelerated growth as a result. In return, 65% of the forests are formed of young trees. Without thick bark protection, they are highly susceptible to fire. 

Consequently, the current forest's composition and structure increase the risk of forest fires.
