Preferred term

forest fires  

Definition

  • Forest Fires and wildfires have long been a part of natural cycle of growth across the earth, and have been both a blessing and curse to mankind. The management of wildfires has changed drastically over the centuries, from early efforts to extinguish every fire to modern wildfire management, where fire is used as tool to manage forests to ensure they remain healthy and vibrant ecosystems.
