WILDFIRE + FIREWISE INFORMED + PREPARED

摘要

Damaging wildfires have dominated U.S. news headlines since the beginning of the year, as stories have tumbled, domino-like, out of Florida, North Carolina, Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and Arizona, then back to Texas and the Southeast. What's really news for NFPA, however, among the reports of crisis and disaster, are the mentions of Firewise. In the first six months of 2011, well over 100 stories have made it into major-market media outlets talking about how communities are using Firewise to actively prepare to face the wildfire threat.
