Brazilian protected area managers ignite the Cerrado to promote biodiversity and reduce the risk of severe dry-season fires.
With limited resources these skilled professionals do their part to manage these fire prone landscapes. Once burned, this grassland will not require emergency response in dry season.

This is responsible fire management being practiced in Serra da Canastra, Brasil.

The planet is bursting into flames.
Earth is reminding us we live on a fire planet.
We can send firefighters across the globe to respond to symptoms of our disconnect from nature.
Or we can pick up the torch and reclaim our knowledge of fire.
To know fire is to know the habitat that supports fire.
And that habitat is fuels, topography and weather.

You want to be a fire hero?
Make a plan. Burn. Monitor results. Evaluate. Refine. Adjust. Plan. Burn. Repeat.
You can do it.
