Forest fires are serious business. Please take this readiness exam to determine how likely you are to burn our national treasury down.

uh so wait what in bush country it's cool to light fires? in the bush? if you do a safety jingle? hahaha holy poo poo this is nra bear

see here in australia we have this thing called a "total fire ban" where its wicked loving illegal to light anything anywhere. that's like our anti-bushfire mascot. it has a safety jingle, too, it's the sound of cities burning to the ground and children dying with their parents screaming in horrible agony. there's a cool publicity campaign for it too; the sky turns red and your dog dies of smoke inhalation from fires hundreds of kilometers away every couple years, it's pretty effective

man can you imagine how loving wicked sick it would look like to see a major downtown core completely engulfed in fire, skyscrapers blazing away

the news can't find anyoen from the insurance agencies to give an estimate of how many hundreds of billions are going up in smoke
because they all chose to stay and die with their companies

twilight of the businessmen



oh uh anyway in america we can still have campfires when we go camping in the forest because we haven't yet become a perma-drought hellscape. although i think at least a couple of fires this year were because of dumbasses running chainsaws during high fire threat levels.

Homes are not designed to withstand fires in catastrophic conditions so you should leave early.

lol when is australia going to amend its building codes to basically require homes to be concrete firebunkers
