Yes. And also the explanation for why they're worsening is not exclusively because of fossil fuels/climate change. That is a factor, but others include terrible forestry practices (including, somewhat paradoxically, fire mitigation and fighting).

Not trying to let oil and gas companies off the hook. It's just an issue that has a lot of shared blame between different industries.
