I was watching

and I wondered, "what does the science actually say about the effects of climate change on wildfires." So I hop on google scholar and find
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ele.12889
when I go to read the article i'm met with a paywall. so people who push climate change denial are putting there message out there for free but scientist are making you pay. this is beyond stupid. doesn't the government pay for this research? if my tax dollars are funding this I should have access to it. I know there are places like libgen but that doesn't solve the issue.
