Nationwide, more than 75,000 wildfires are reported each year. About nine out of ten fires are caused by people. Wildfires destroy homes and damage wildlife habitat and watersheds that provide drinking water for millions of people. Arson fires are set deliberately, but people cause fires in many ways: unattended campfires; fireworks; sparks from equipment or vehicles without working spark arrestors; or burning leaves and debris. Wildfires started by cigarettes tossed from cars or by children playing with matches can be deadly too. It’s everyone’s job to prevent human-caused wildfires. It’s always wildfire season somewhere in the U.S. Be prepared! Know what to do before a wildfire strikes your area. Prepare your home and your community. Features:
