To solve the global wildfire crisis, don't just focus on flames
Briefly

Wildfires are increasingly becoming humanitarian disasters, forcing us to reconsider our approach from merely putting out flames to understanding fire's role as a natural and unavoidable process.
It's essential to acknowledge that fire is not just a disaster to be managed, but a natural process that plays a critical role in ecosystem health and resilience.
Current fire service responses often focus on immediate suppression, but there's growing awareness that a long-term strategy is needed to balance fire management and ecological health.
As wildfires escalate globally, we must adopt a holistic perspective that integrates fire's ecological benefits while improving community resilience and emergency preparedness.
