Abstract
ID: 21
Since the 1980s, the area burned in the United States each year by wildfires has been increasing. The cause of this increase is multifactorial, but climate change and the excess accumulation of fuel in our forests from a decades-long fire deficit are major contributors to this trend. While the number of wildfires each year has not changed significantly, the average damage caused by each one has increased, meaning the prevention of ignitions is more important now than it ever has been. With approximately eighty-five percent of wildland fire ignitions being caused by human activity, education may be the best way to reduce human caused fires. This project explores how people can go about reducing the risk that they are responsible for a wildfire ignition.
