Abstract

Fire is a natural disaster arising from various causes, which causes serious damage, especially loss of life and property, and
cause irreversible consequences. Today, the biggest factor in the emergence of fires is humans. There is a great loss of life and
property in the majority of fires arising from carelessness, improvidence and neglect, and unfortunately the number of such
fires in our country is quite high. In forested areas most of the destructive impact of the fire that creates the actual becomes
apparent. Forest fire means uncontrollably burning fire, which is arisen both natural and anthropogenic influences, which gives
serious damage to living and non-living assets in the forest as well as to their environment. Whatever the reason, the size of the
damage in a forest fire; the type of dominant vegetation in the area, the soil characteristics of the area, the season of fire, the
weather following the fire, the repetition, the duration and the severity of the fire. Considering the fact that only natural beauty
disappears in a forest fire that develops due to all these factors, it is as big a crime as to cause a fire. Because our assets that are
only valuable forests will not be damaged as a result of fire at the same time, flora, wildlife, water resources, soil, climate, and
the surrounding forested areas for recreational purposes people are using with the areas of immediate settlements can destroy it.
Compensation of this damage from occurring; prior to the fire, putting out fire during a fire protective and preventive measures
and subsequent damage to start with and with the cost of a long process that continues, and occupies a major place in the
country’s economy. As a result, the ecological effects of fire on the ecosystem than approximately 400 million since in addition
to sizes that cannot be ignored by the reigning socio-economic effects, unfortunately, often a natural disaster that confronts us.
The increase in our individual and social awareness in this regard will bring about the success of our country in this respect by
bringing down the damages that occur in a direct and indirect way to the minimum level.
