A forest fire broke out in Zhangpu, Fujian. What was the cause of the fire?

The weather in autumn and winter is relatively dry and there is less rain, because it is easy to cause fires. Generally in autumn and winter, firefighters will patrol the forest, and there will also be some publicity activities to remind everyone not to light fires in the forest, and to pay special attention to safety when using fire. A forest fire broke out in a village in Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province. After receiving the fire alarm call, forest firefighters went to the scene as soon as possible to observe the fire. This forest fire was not big and the intensity of the fire was within control. The specific cause of the fire is still under investigation, but the main cause of forest fires is spontaneous combustion caused by someone using an open fire in the forest or dry weather.

1. Forest fires may be caused by open flames or spontaneous combustion.

The occurrence of forest fires can be divided into two situations, one is man-made, and the other is spontaneous combustion caused by too dry weather. The man-made cause may be that someone used an open fire in the forest, but failed to extinguish it in time. The open fire ignited the surrounding dead branches, eventually causing the fire. The possibility of spontaneous combustion is unlikely because spontaneous combustion must reach the ignition point and have weather conditions for fire, etc. 2. Deal with fire promptly.

If you encounter a forest fire in the forest, you should judge whether it is within your control based on the intensity of the fire. If the fire intensity does not exceed one meter, you can find a way to put it out on your own. If the fire is too big, don't risk it easily. You can call the firefighters in time. Explain the location of the fire on the phone and tell the firefighters the correct location so that they can arrive as soon as possible. 3. Escape correctly when encountering a fire.

If you encounter a large wildfire, do not stay and leave the scene of the incident promptly. When escaping, do not run with the wind, because your running speed may not be able to keep up with the speed of the fire. If you run against the wind, you will not be chased by the fire. If you are trapped in a fire scene, you can light a fire with the wind in your location, burn a safe area, and wait for rescue in the safe area.
