🔥 Not all fires are bad. Fire can be a powerful tool for protecting our lands and communities.

Good fires (prescribed burns and cultural fires) help restore healthy landscapes, reduce excess vegetation and lower the risk of destructive wildfires.

Bad fires are uncontrolled wildfires that threaten homes, wildlife and lives.

By supporting responsible fire management and Firewise practices, we can help reduce wildfire risk and keep our communities safer.

âś… Learn about Firewise landscaping.
âś… Support local prescribed burn programs.
âś… Report unsafe fire conditions.

Together, we can protect our lands for future generations. 🌎🔥
