SUB-TOPIC: BUSH BURNING AND DEFORESTATION
Sub-Topic 1: PRACTICES THAT INFLUENCE BUSH BURNING
Bush burning is the clearing of vegetation by setting it on fire. The reason for bush burning may be for social, economic or agricultural purpose. Practices that can influence bush burning include:
Forest Fire
In this picture a fire rages through Yellowstone National Park in the United States. There are three kinds of forest fires: one that burns a layer of the forest floor only, one that burns surface litter and forest undergrowth, and one that advances through the tops of trees. All three fires can occur at the same time
Practice House Fire
Fire requires heat, oxygen, and fuel to ignite and spread. Here, firefighters practice extinguishing a house fire. While fire is an essential part of our lives—providing heat for warmth, cooking, and certain industrial processes—uncontrolled fire can be a destructive force. In the United States, a structure fire occurs every 55 seconds.
