🚒 Firewise Fun at Matakana School! 🚒 What an epic day with the Matakana Volunteer Fire Brigade out at Matakana School, helping the next generation become fire-wise superheroes! As part of their fire safety program, the kids have been learning all about staying safe in an emergency — and wow, their teachers have done an incredible job. We were blown away by how much these tamariki already knew! From escape plans to “Get down, get low, get out fast,” they were all over it 👏🏽 We spent time in the classroom reinforcing key fire safety messages, then headed outside for the real excitement — exploring the fire truck, learning about our breathing apparatus, and of course, every kid’s favourite part… squirting the fire hose! Around 100 students took part and brought so much energy, curiosity, and enthusiasm. It’s always such a privilege to spend time with our local school and be part of building a safer, more prepared community. Big thanks to the amazing teachers and staff at Matakana school for having us. We’ll see you again next year — stay fire safe, Matakana! 🔥👩‍🚒👨‍🚒🧯 #MatakanaFireBrigade #Firewise #CommunityFirst #MatakanaPrimary #VolunteerFirefighters #KidsAndCommunity #BeFireSafe #MatakanaCoast

🔥 July 2 is Wildland Firefighter Day in Nevada 🔥 Today we honor the people who protect our communities, landscapes, and natural resources from wildfire. Wildland firefighters take on intense physical challenges in dangerous conditions. Their work includes not just fire response, but also fuels management, training, and community education. They help keep ecosystems healthy and safeguard homes, watersheds, and wildlife. Thank you to all who serve. We see you. We appreciate you. #WildlandFirefighterDay #NevadaStrong #ThankYouFirefighters #NDF #PublicLands #WildfireSeason #Conservation #Stewardship

Arizona Forestry’s Prevention Division spent the day in Sedona working to clear brush and create defensible space for the residents of Coffeepot as part of the HOAs Firewise USA initiatives. The Cottages at Coffeepot are one of more than 150 recognized and active Firewise USA neighborhoods across the state. The Firewise USA program empowers residents to collaborate and work together to reduce the wildfire risk around their homes and in their neighborhoods. #defensiblespace #sedona #arizona #coconinocounty #cottsgesatcoffeepot #wildlandfirefighting #wildlandfirefighter #wildlandfirefighters #prevention #firewise #firewisecommunities @nfpadotorg #sawyer #brush #cleanup #maintenance

My neighborhood is becoming Firewise! 🧯 After the HFD and Firewise inspected our area and identified risk factors, we built a firebreak (a cleared strip that removes fuel to slow or stop a fire) and cleared hazardous brush. Mahalo to Island Topsoil for donating bins so neighbors could safely dispose of green waste. Start by working on your home, then the block, and those efforts protect our entire community. Interested in this for your neighborhood? Comment FIREWISE below 👇🏽 for resources. #AlohaAina #CommunityFirst #WestsideStrong #Firewise #HFD #WildfireReady

A small spark quickly set a lawn on fire in South Carolina, with a doorbell camera showing the flames growing within seconds, thanks to dry grass and high winds. ⁣ ⁣ #fire #southcarolina #lawn #dryweather #weather #news #usnews #reels #accuweather

A glimmer of hope shines through as we continue to be unconventional yet purposeful in making a difference. This is about being intentional with insurance and highlighting the many layers our community is building to enhance fire safety. It’s never just one thing—it’s the collective efforts: FireWise, our town ordinances, and the way we rebuild. A huge thanks to Mercury for stepping up and recognizing the true essence of our town and its resilience. Can't wait for more insurers to show up 🤗

Saturday was a fun-filled day of community events we participated in across the Unit. We were at several community preparedness day events, Firewise association events, a YMCA Healthy Kids Day event and took part in a Sonoma County evacuation exercise in the Springs area of Sonoma Valley. We are thankful for these opportunities to be out interacting with residents and are encouraged by all the work and momentum we see with community emergency preparedness efforts.

UPDATE- 🚨this fire was caused by an arsonist off of the freeway in Sylmar Ca, and had nothing to do with our video shoot, crew, equipment whatsoever. Police and firefighters thanked us for our help🚨 -Holy smokes. In the middle of filming our latest music video, I saw a fire start in the distance just on the side of the freeway. We ran over, climbed over the fence of the property and tried to put it out with what we could. There were empty planter 🪴buckets from the property that we used to try to smother the fire with dirt till firefighters arrived. For anyone to assume we started this for Views is ridiculous🤦🏻‍♂️ •See other videos on this for the full story. Stay safe out there California. #wednesday13 #californiawildfires

Prescribed burns help reduce wildfire risk, as well as increase forest resilience and improve habitat. 🌲 Recently, CAL FIRE CZU conducted a prescribed burn with the collaboration of several local agencies. Soquel Demonstration State Forest in Santa Cruz County is not only used for public recreational activities, such as biking, but also for educational programs, scientific research, habitat, and wildlife preservation.
