Forest fires are a major threat in forests during the dry summer months when leaves and other materials become highly flammable. Fires can be caused by natural events like lightning or human activities such as burning for grazing or warding off wild animals. There are two main types of forest fires - surface fires that burn along the forest floor and more dangerous crown fires that burn the tops of trees. Forest fires have many negative effects like loss of timber, wildlife, and biodiversity as well as increased soil erosion and global warming. Proper fire management through education, fire lines, watchers, and community involvement is needed to reduce fires and their impacts.

Forest fire
The document discusses forest fires, including their causes, types, effects, and fire management needs. It notes that forest fires are most commonly caused by human activities like shifting cultivation or lighting fires for recreation, as well as environmental factors like lightning strikes. Surface fires spread along the forest floor while crown fires burn tree canopies. Forest fires cause damage like biodiversity loss, wildlife habitat loss, and increased carbon emissions. Proper fire management requires prevention, detection, rapid response, and research according to India's National Master Plan for Forest Fire Control. The document also summarizes two major historical fires, the 1871 Great Chicago Fire and Peshtigo Fire in Wisconsin that killed over 1,000 people.
Forest fire
Forest fires are the most common disaster in forests. During dry summer months with no rain, forests become littered with dry leaves and twigs that can easily catch fire from the smallest spark. Forest fires cause imbalances in nature by reducing plant and animal life, endangering biodiversity. Traditional fire prevention methods have not been effective, so it is essential to increase public awareness, especially among those living near forests, on the threats of forest fires.
Forest Fire- its impacts, case studies
This document provides information on forest fires, including:
1) It defines forest fires and discusses their components - fuel, oxygen, and heat. Surface fires that burn litter on the forest floor are the most common type.
2) The fire triangle illustrates how weather, fuels, and human factors influence wildfire risk. Topography, wind, and low humidity can cause fires to spread rapidly.
3) Different types of fires are described, such as surface fires, underground fires, and crown fires that burn in treetops. Surface fires play an important role in forest regeneration.
Forest fire
The forest fires that occurred in Uttarakhand in 2016 destroyed large areas of forest cover and wildlife habitat. Possible causes included high temperatures from low rainfall, sparks from rock falls, and various human activities like burning agricultural fields, discarded cigarettes, and honey or timber collection. The fires had major environmental impacts like glacier melting, soil and wildlife habitat degradation. They also harmed livelihoods, health, tourism, and disrupted daily life. Management approaches include traditional methods like creating fire breaks and modern methods using aircraft and monitoring systems. Improved prevention requires awareness campaigns, safe practices, monitoring, and working with local communities.

Wildfires
The Rim Fire of 2013 burned over 257,000 acres in California's Stanislaus National Forest from August to October. Fueled by heavy brush and dead trees that built up from drought conditions, the fire had extensive impacts both negative and positive on the environment. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions through more fuel efficient vehicles and other measures can help slow global warming and reduce the severity of future wildfires.
Forest Fire in Uttarakhand, India
A large forest fire occurred in Uttarakhand, India in 2016 that took a long time to control and resulted in massive destruction. Over 3,500 hectares of forest were burned and the fires produced heavy smoke. The government deployed firefighters and helicopters to douse the fires, which were fueled by dry weather and high winds. While some blamed timber smugglers for intentionally setting the fires, natural conditions also contributed to the fires spreading. The fires severely impacted wildlife reserves and destroyed forest habitat.
Natural hazards wildfires
Wildfires can cause significant ecological and economic damage. They begin as confined or contained fires but can spread and burn out of control, threatening lives and property. The causes of wildfires include lightning, human negligence, and spontaneous combustion. Factors like fuel availability, weather, and topography determine a wildfire's size, duration, and intensity. Firefighters work to reduce heat, oxygen, or fuel available to wildfires using techniques like controlled burns, firebreaks, and water/chemical drops from aircraft.
Fire & the forest
This document discusses wildfires and forest fire management. It defines key terms related to wildfires and describes different types of fires, including ground fires, surface fires, and crown fires. Factors that influence fire behavior like weather, slope, and wind are examined. The document outlines the three requirements for a fire - fuel, oxygen, and an ignition source. It also discusses fire prevention, suppression, and control methods like using firebreaks, prescribed burns, and mop-up activities after a fire. Finally, the beneficial uses of controlled fires are mentioned, such as reducing hazardous fuels and improving wildlife habitat and forest health.
Mitigation of Wildfire
Mitigation of Wildfire or Wildfire and its mitigation processes used in curbing events of fire in the wild.
Wild Fire season
The 2018 wildfire season in California was the deadliest and most destructive on record. Fueled by large amounts of dead trees, high winds, and accidental ignitions from power lines, over 8,500 fires burned nearly 2 million acres. The Camp Fire destroyed the town of Paradise and was the costliest disaster of 2018. Despite prevention efforts, more homes are being built in high risk areas, leading to greater damage. Future strategies include maintaining fuel breaks and placing power lines underground. Federal agencies supported state recovery through debris removal and flexibility for health services.
Deforestation
Deforestation is the conversion of forested areas to non-forested land. It occurs for various reasons like timber, agriculture, infrastructure development, and fuel needs. Deforestation has negative environmental consequences such as increased carbon emissions, loss of biodiversity, soil erosion, and disrupted water cycles. Some solutions to deforestation include sustainable logging, reforestation, afforestation, and increasing awareness about environmental protection. Pakistan has one of the highest deforestation rates in the world primarily due to fuel wood consumption and population growth.
Forest fire threat to ecological security - 47 slides.ppt bhutan
This document discusses forest fires as a threat to ecological security in India. It provides statistics on the percentage of forest areas affected by fires in various Indian states. The strategic location of India makes it one of the mega biodiversity zones, so forest fires pose a major threat. Fires are caused by factors inside and outside forests like grazers, cattle, and human settlements. Remote sensing is used to detect fires in regions like the Himalayas and Western Ghats. Forest fires impact biodiversity, soil, water, vegetation and wildlife by destroying habitats. Preventing and managing forest fires requires a collaborative approach involving local communities, awareness campaigns, and landscape-level management that considers vegetation and fire history.
NATURAL AND MAN MADE DISASTERS

Hazards & Types Of Disasters
The document defines different types of hazards and disasters. It discusses natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions, landslides, tropical cyclones, floods, storms, mudslides, avalanches, droughts, and wildfires. It also covers technological disasters, environmental disasters, and complex disasters involving terrorism, civil unrest, and refugee problems. The document provides descriptions and examples of each type of hazard and disaster.
Avalanche
This document discusses avalanches and defines them as rapid flows of snow down sloping surfaces that are triggered in starting zones and form gravity currents. It describes how avalanches occur due to factors like temperature differences between snow layers, evaporation of lower layers, and loss of grip. The anatomy of an avalanche includes the starting zone where snow can fracture and slide, the track path down the slope, and the runout zone where snow comes to a stop. Formation involves terrain angle and slope, snowpack structure with weak layers below slabs, and weather conditions like temperature rises or storms. Types include loose snow, slab, powder, and wet snow avalanches. Effects range from positive like habitat to negative like damage and

Avalanche
An avalanche is a mass of snow sliding down a mountain. There are different types including surface avalanches which involve layers of snow with different properties sliding over each other, and full depth avalanches where the entire snow cover from the ground up slides. Avalanches are caused by various environmental factors including heavy snowfall, steep slopes, vibration, warm temperatures and layers of snow and ice building up. They can damage life, property and infrastructure and cause flash flooding, but are also a natural part of mountain ecosystems. Understanding avalanche patterns and avoiding likely start zones are important for preventing danger.
Man-Made Disaster PPT
This document defines and discusses man-made disasters. It notes that man-made disasters are caused directly by human actions, whether intentional or unintentional. Several types of man-made disasters are described in detail, including structural collapses, transportation accidents, oil spills, arson, deforestation, and more. Causes of man-made disasters include human error, negligence, ignorance, and technological failures. The impacts on human well-being, economies, and societies are also summarized.
Nuclear disasters
A nuclear explosion is an explosion that occurs as a result of the rapid release of energy from a high-speed nuclear reaction. The driving reaction may be nuclear fission, nuclear fusion or a multistage cascading combination of the two, though to date all fusion-based weapons have used a fission device to initiate fusion, and a pure fusion weapon remains a hypothetical device.
Presentation on natural disaster - avalanche
This document discusses natural disasters and focuses on avalanches. It defines an avalanche as a rapid movement of snow down a slope due to structural weakness in the snow cover. There are three main types of avalanches: loose avalanches which can occur with little warning; slab avalanches, the most commonly occurring type, often started by human error; and slush avalanches which usually occur later in the season. Avalanches are caused by layers of snow building up strength and then a vibration or temperature change causes the snow to slide down the mountain. Avalanches pose deadly risks by trapping and killing people under the snow and damaging infrastructure.
Deforestation
Deforestation is the removal of forests to make way for agriculture, settlements, and other human needs. The world's forests have shrunk by 40% since 11,000 years ago, mostly in the last two centuries. Deforestation occurs for timber, agriculture, mining, infrastructure like roads and railways, and other economic activities. It leads to negative consequences like climate change, water and soil issues, loss of biodiversity, and increased desertification. Ways to reduce deforestation include sustainable logging, reforestation, reducing demand for wood and palm oil, and increasing awareness about forest conservation.
Forests and wildlife resources
Forests play a vital ecological role and contain a wealth of biodiversity. However, many forest and wildlife species in India are under threat due to habitat loss from factors like extraction of forest resources, agriculture, and developmental projects. Species are classified by the IUCN as normal, endangered, vulnerable, rare, endemic, or extinct depending on population levels and risk of decline. Conservation efforts include protected areas, wildlife protection laws, and community-based conservation initiatives.

Soumya Sharma disaster resilience ppt 1.pptx
This document provides information about Soumya Sharma's class project on wildfires for their Disaster Management course. It discusses what wildfires are, their causes, types, effects, and precautions. Wildfires are uncontrolled fires that burn vegetation in rural areas. Climate change is exacerbating wildfires by creating hotter and drier conditions. There are three main types of wildfires - crown fires, ground fires, and surface fires. Wildfires can be caused by both natural events like lightning as well as human activities such as land clearing. They have negative effects like loss of life, property damage, and environmental degradation. Precautions include creating defensible space around homes and following evacuation instructions.
Fire ecology
This document discusses fire ecology and the role of fire in various ecosystems. It notes that globally over 5,000 Tg of biomass is consumed annually by natural fires, emitting large amounts of carbon dioxide and other gases. It explores how certain plant communities like Mediterranean shrublands and African savannas have evolved with and depend on fire. In India, most fires are human-caused and burn over 3.7 million hectares annually. The document then examines the effects of fire on air, soil, plants, and vegetation characteristics. It looks at how fire impacts nutrients, organic matter, soil biota and properties like pH. Finally, it discusses plant adaptations to fire and the use of fire as a management tool.
Forest resources
1. Forest resources play an important economic and environmental role globally and in India.
2. India has a total forest area of 21.02% of its land, though forest cover is declining due to factors like population growth, infrastructure development, and shifting cultivation.
3. Forests provide timber, fuel, habitat, erosion control, and help regulate climate and rainfall. However, deforestation due to human activities is resulting in issues like soil erosion, biodiversity loss, and decreased water tables.

Technology will destroy our planet-Shana Ankersmit
The document discusses how human-caused global warming is increasing wildfire risks by raising temperatures and altering weather patterns. It notes that the U.S. emits high levels of greenhouse gases, fueling more frequent and intense forest fires. While fires can benefit forests in some ways, climate change is causing fires to burn more severely and destructively. The increasing wildfire threat demonstrates the urgent need to curb carbon pollution and limit global warming to safer levels.
Natural Hazards ( Drought, wild fire, urban fire).docx
This document discusses natural hazards including drought, wildfires, and urban fires. It provides definitions and details on the causes, effects, history, and management of each hazard. Drought is defined as a prolonged period of deficient rainfall and affects over 55 million people globally each year. Wildfires often begin unintentionally and can spread rapidly, destroying large areas of land. Notable wildfire events include fires in Wisconsin in 1871 and Indonesia in 1997. Urban fires occur primarily in cities and can spread between structures. Major urban fires throughout history include those in London in 1666, Chicago in 1871, and San Francisco in 1906.
deforestation
Deforestation is the removal of forests to make room for human development. It has increased due to population growth, urbanization, and industrialization. Deforestation leads to soil erosion, flooding, loss of wildlife, increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and other environmental issues. Pakistan has one of the highest deforestation rates in Asia due to unsustainable logging and lack of enforcement of forestry laws. Reforestation efforts and use of alternative energy are needed to address deforestation.

UNIT II - DEFORESTATION.pptx
Deforestation is the cutting down of trees without replanting and has significant negative effects:
1) It destroys habitats and leads to the extinction of many plant and animal species by reducing biodiversity.
2) It causes problems like heavy soil erosion, severe flooding, desertification, and global warming by reducing the Earth's ability to absorb carbon dioxide.
3) The loss of forests disrupts ecosystems and threatens human lives by forcing wildlife into urban areas and making areas more vulnerable to natural disasters.
Presentation on disasters
Disasters and types of disasters. Natural disasters such as floods, cyclone,earthquake,tsunami,volcano and so on. these are caused naturally. man made disasters like oil spills and gas leaks. These are caused due to human activity.
Fire Management Position Statement_Michigan SAF
This document discusses fire management in Michigan forests. It states that fire is a natural and important process in many forest ecosystems, but uncontrolled wildfires can be destructive. The benefits of using prescribed fire must be balanced against risks to safety. Professional foresters should educate residents on wildfire risks and benefits of prescribed fire, while agencies need to maintain skills and resources to suppress wildfires and conduct prescribed burns safely. Coordination is also needed between land managers and local fire departments.
Forestfire
This presentation discusses wildfires. It begins by defining a wildfire as an uncontrolled fire in combustible vegetation occurring in rural areas. Wildfires can be further classified based on the type of vegetation present, such as brush fires, forest fires, or grass fires. Wildfires are characterized by their cause of ignition, physical properties, combustible material present, and impact of weather. Factors like heat waves, droughts, and climate changes can increase wildfire risks and alter their behavior. The presentation goes on to discuss anthropogenic causes of wildfires and the relationship between climate change and increasing wildfire trends and land loss. It also addresses wildfire detection in India and the ecological and economic impacts of forest fires.
Deforestation b.ed by ritima manhas
Deforestation refers to the clearing of forests to make land available for human use such as agriculture, housing, and industry. This leads to serious threats including increased soil erosion, more frequent floods and droughts, loss of plant and animal species, and a warmer climate in deforested areas. Deforestation is caused by factors like population growth, extraction of wood for fuel and construction, agricultural expansion, fires, pests, and dams. Reforestation programs in India aim to reduce pressure on forests by promoting social forestry, agroforestry, urban forestry, and protected forest reserves.

Forest Resources environmental studies.pptx
The document discusses forest resources and the causes and impacts of deforestation. It notes that deforestation is primarily driven by increasing demand for resources and overexploitation of forests through activities like development projects, mining, and shifting cultivation. Deforestation leads to significant economic, social, and environmental consequences, including loss of biodiversity, increased flooding and soil erosion, disruption of weather patterns, and acceleration of global warming. Dams and mining are also discussed as major causes of deforestation, through clearing of forest areas and displacement of tribal communities. Specific case studies on the impacts of dams on forests and tribal people are provided.
Forest fire
Fires, both man-made and natural, contribute to forest loss.Wildfires are a natural occurrance and serve important ecosystem functions. Forest landscapes are dynamic and change in response to variations in climate and to disturbances from natural sources, such as fires caused by lightning strikes.These realities have brought about a greater sense of the importance of understanding how forests should be managed to ensure health and sustainability. Current practices use a combination of containment measures in an attempt to balance the importance of periodic fires to ecosystem health and the danger of uncontrolled burns to human communities. so, this is a short presentation on the concerned topic!

THE CAUSES OF REVOLT OF 1857
The document summarizes the causes and key events of the 1857 revolt in India against British rule. It identifies political, social, religious, economic and military causes that led to growing resentment, including the annexation of states, new social reforms threatening traditions, heavy taxes and economic exploitation, and unequal treatment of Indian soldiers. The immediate cause was a rumor that new gun cartridges were greased with cow and pig fat, offending Hindu and Muslim soldiers. The revolt spread across many areas led by figures like the Rani of Jhansi and was a major challenge to British power in India.
SPORT DAY
Sports days are events held by schools and offices where people participate in competitive sports activities with the aim of winning trophies or prizes. In India, sports days are held for two to three days and include traditional games like kho-kho and kabaddi played between houses in a school. Sports and games play an important role in developing personality and are considered as important as food and water in developed countries where they are an essential part of education. Participating in sports and games keeps the body active and healthy while increasing blood circulation and oxygen supply.

Skinner’s operant conditioning theory
Skinner's operant conditioning theory posits that behavior is shaped by its consequences rather than driven by internal processes or stimuli. Through experiments using a Skinner box, he found that rats would learn to press a lever when rewarded with food pellets. Their behavior was conditioned and reinforced through positive reinforcement. Operant conditioning is a process of learning whereby behaviors are strengthened if followed by rewarding consequences or weakened if followed by unpleasant consequences, with the goal of increasing or decreasing certain behaviors.
Tolman theory of learning
Edward Tolman was an American psychologist who developed the theory of purposive behaviorism. According to Tolman's theory, organisms learn by pursuing signs or cues that lead to a goal, rather than just responding to stimuli. Tolman believed that learning involves acquiring meaningful behaviors through navigation of the environment to achieve goals. He conducted experiments on reward expectancy and place learning in rats to understand how they acquire and use information about their surroundings.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

The forest fire
- 1. FOREST FIRE……………………A FIRE DISASTER A PRESENTATION ON……………..
- 2. INTRODUCTION • THE MOST COMMON HAZARD IN FOREST IS “FOREST FIRES”. THEY POSE A THREAT NOT ONLY TO FOREST WEALTH BUT ALSO TO THE ENTIRE REGION TO FAUNA AND FLORA SERIOUSLY DISTRUBING THE BIODIVERSITY. DURING SUMMER WHEN THERE IS NO RAIN FOR MONHTS. THE FOREST BECOME LITTERED WITH DRY LEAVES WHICH COULD BURST INTO FLAMES IGNITED BY THE SLIGHTEST SPARK. BASICALLY THE FOREST FIRE CAUSES IMBALANCES IN NATURE AND ENDANGERS BIODIVERSITY.
- 3. CAUSES OF FOREST FIRE IT CAN BE DIVIDED INTO TWO CATEGORIES:- 1) ENVIRONMENTAL. • LIGHTNING. • HIGH TEMPERATURE AND DRYNESS IN SUMMER. 2) HUMAN RELATED. • FIRE IS CAUSED WHEN A SOURCE OF FIRE LIKE WAKED FLAME, CIGRETTE, ELECTRIC SPARK OR ANY SOURCE OF IGNITION.
- 4. HUMAN RELATED CAUSES COULD BE INTENTIONAL OR UNINTENTIONAL FOR EXAMPLE:- • GRAZIERS AND GATHERERS OF VARIOUS FOREST PRODUCTS STARTS FIRE TO OBTAIN GRAZING GRASS AND OTHER FOREST PRODUCE. • THE USE OF FIRE BY VILLAGERS TO WARD OFF WILD ANIMALS E.G. IN OUR REGION IN FEAR OF LEOPARD, BROWN BEAR.
- 5. TYPES OF FOREST FIRE SOURCES THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF FOREST FIRES. 1. SURFACE FOREST FIRE. 2. CROWN FOREST FIRE.
- 6. SURFACE FOREST FIRE • A FOREST FIRE MAY BURN PRIMARILY AS A SURFACE FIRE, SPREADING ALONG THE GROUND AS THE SURFACE LITTER (SENESCENT LEAVES AND TWIGS AND DRY GRASSES ETC) ON THE FOREST FLOOR AND IS ENGULFED BY THE SPREADING FLAMES.
- 7. CROWN FOREST FIRE • THE OTHER TYPE OF FOREST FIRE IS A CROWN FIRE IN WHICH THE CROWN OF TREES AND SHRUBS BURN , OFTEN SUSTAINED BY A SURFACE FIRE,. IT IS MOST DANGEROUS TYPE OF FIRE.
- 8. EFFECTS OF FOREST FIRE • Loss of valuable timber resources. • Degradation of catchment area. • Loss of wildlife. • Loss of biodiversity. • Reduction in forest cover. • Global warming. • Soil erosion. • Loss of livelihood of forest dwellers.
- 9. THE NEED OF FIRE MANAGEMENT • BY EDUCATING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOSS OF FOREST FIRE. • INVOLVING FOREST MANAGEMENT COMMITEES , MAHILA MANDAL , YUVAK MANDALS ETC. • BY CREATING & MAINTAINING FIRE LINES. • BY CONSTRUCTION OF VAN SAROVAR. • BY RECRUITING FIRE WATCHERS.
- 10. FIRE PROTECTION WORK IN FOREST RANGE “KOTLA” FIRE LINE IN R 6 N MASTGARH LENGTH 7KM
- 11. FIRE PROTECTION WORK IN FOREST RANGE “KOTLA” FIRE LINE IN R 15 N BHALI
- 12. FIRE PROTECTION & SOIL CONSERVATION WORK IN FOREST RANGE “KOTLA” RCC FARM POUND IN R 6 N MASTGARH C1A WHS / VAN SAROVAR IN UP79 AMBAL C1
- 13. FIRE RECORD OF KOTLA RANGE SINCE LAST FIVE YEARS.
- 14. CONCLUSION • FOREST FIRE IS A MULTI SECTOR ISSUE. • FOREST FIRE IS A NATIONAL PROBLEM. • THE GOVERNMENT FROM VILLAGE TO NATIONAL LEVEL SHOULD DEDICATE MORE RESOURCES FOR FIRE CONCERN. • A NATIONAL CAMPAIGN ON FIRE MANAGEMENT IS NEEDED.
