In this day and age, the increase of natural disasters such as

wildfires has become a debatable issue. Relationships between


the cause and the solution is a great concern to a load of people

Firstly, mention about the root of the problem. There are two main
reasons cause wildfires. Start with the nature, this can be
demonstrated by the abnormal increasing harmful insects which
contribute to damage various vegetation. As a result, the dead
trees and plants become the source of fuel that causes forest fires.
Moreover, lightning is capable of starting a fire up to 30%.
because, when it strikes, it can produce a spark that can set up
flames. To give a clear example, in August 2020, there are 560
forest fires caused by lightning strikes in California within one
week. Consequently, six people were killed, 43 firefighters and
civilians were injured, 170.000 residents were evacuated. Another
reason that creating wildfires is human beings. According to “The
top five causes of wildfires”, about 90% of all forest fires are
started by humans. People can set a fire on purpose, for instance,
in rural areas, farmers usually tend to harvest trees in the forest for
timber or burning it down to create room for crops. From that can
lead to put things out of control and cause a fire. Besides that, for
several reason, forest fires can start by accident. To illustrate, the
carelessness in made use of torch to harness honey might
possible to build fire

Secondly, offer a solution to cope with the problem. From my point


of view, raise awareness could be an effective way. Additionally,
organized fire drills in school or local place, it not only boost
cognitive about of dangers of fire but also shows young and old
age people how to put out the fire correctly. Thus, can avoid the
risk of fire spread to the forest. To give another option, removing
vegetation that can fuel fire such as eucalyptus tree, pine. Then
substitute them with the plants and trees that can adapt to hot
weather. Furthermore, to give self-solution, look for a way to keep
up to date with the weather forecast in the places you plan to trip
or build a campfire. Because the weather is one of the biggest
factors why wildfires occur. In high winds condition, prescribed fire
can go out of hand at any moment

In the final analysis, the forest not only provides homes for the
animal but also bring a lot of benefits for human. At the same time
keep our air fresh by absorbing carbon dioxide and release
oxygen. Protect forest is also save the lives, houses of many
people and creature on the planet
