📚Understanding the concepts✅ 🅾️ How do forests catch fire? ✅A wildfire is a major fire that breaks out unpredictably in combustible environments such as dry forests or bush, and often burns uncontrollably over a large area and length of time. ✅ A forest fire can be triggered by natural factors such as prolonged hot, dry weather or lightning strikes, or human carelessness. ✅Wildfires require a “fire triangle” of fuel, oxygen, and heat in order to grow and spread, and can be extinguished when at least one of the three elements is removed. ✅One of the reasons wildfires cause immense destruction is the speed of their spread, which depends on the weather, winds, fuel, and topography. High temperatures and droughts have contributed to devastating wildfires in California, Australia, Brazil, and southern Europe. Slopes, especially those that face the sun and retain more heat, are more prone to catching fire.
