However, this fire was actually created by firefighters in order to create a border and not allow the main fire in the forest to further spread causing more destruction. Because of Saitama's actions, a larger fire occurred completely destroying the whole forest and neighboring cities.

So the question is, is Saitama responsible for negligence and exasperating the probelm because he was thoughtless in his actions? Or is he fine because he put out a fire he saw in front of him?
But he didn't cause more destruction in the meteor incident. Many parts of the city were destroyed, but no one died. The alternative was everyone died and the entire city became a crater and parts of the adjoining cities did too.

That's a VERY different situation than you proposed, wherein someone causes more damage by trying to help without knowing the circumstances.
