Forest fire protection: Transcript


in Europe and Poland Every year devastating forest fires take place in Europe and around the world destroying thousands of hectares of forests and affecting population When the scale of a fire exceeds the capacity of a country to extinguish it the EU Civil Protection Mechanism can be activated to provide a rapid and effective response.

There are several hundred thousand fires on the ground each year, which destroy about 10 million hectares of forest. In the European Union alone 450 thousand. Hectares of forested areas are burned in fires. Poland ranks fourth in terms of number of fires and tenth in terms of burnt areas.. Poland, as a heavily forested country, is in the lead in forest fires. Around 40% of the forest resources in the world are prone to fires, nearly 65% in Europe, and about 85% in Poland.. According to FAO, hundreds of thousands of fires are created each year, destroying about 10 million hectares of forest. In the European Union alone 450 thousand. Hectares of forested areas are burned in fires.. . in Poland and Europe.. What. . is. . Wildfire. ?. . A wildfire or wildland fire is a fire in an area of combustible vegetation that occurs in the countryside or rural area. Depending on the type of vegetation where it occurs, a wildfire can also be classified more specifically as a brush fire, bush fire, desert fire, forest fire, grass fire, hill fire, peat fire, vegetation fire, or veld fire. Fossil charcoal indicates that wildfires began soon after the appearance of terrestrial plants 420 million years ago. Wildfire’s occurrence throughout the history of terrestrial life invites conjecture that fire must have had pronounced evolutionary effects on most ecosystems' flora and fauna. Earth is an intrinsically flammable planet owing to its cover of carbon-rich vegetation, seasonally dry climates, atmospheric oxygen, and widespread lightning and volcano ignitions..
