Data on GHG emissions from forest fires show a downward trend, which is, however, not statistically significant. In the long term, there is a major forest fire in Slovenia about every five years, so GHG emissions are relatively high in these years. The highest GHG emissions due to forest fires since we have been recording data were in 2003.
