The Fire Nest Project

Rapid Low-Cost Forest Fire Reduction Plan

Forest fires have a profound impact on wildlife, habitats, and local economies. They lead to the loss of biodiversity, disrupt natural ecosystems, and cause long-term ecological damage as habitats are destroyed. The aftermath places significant financial burdens on communities, disrupting local economies and livelihoods. To address these challenges, an investment of $65 million is required to implement effective preparedness and mitigation strategies that will protect forests, reduce fire risks, and safeguard both the environment and local economies. This investment will lay the foundation for long-term resilience and help ensure that we can combat the escalating threats of wildfires more effectively.
