Wildfire
By Stefan Dosanu/ 7 delta
Where and when?
The biggest wildfire in history, occurred in Russia in 2003. The Siberian Taiga Fires burned 47 million acres.
The worst summer was that of 2003 when on one day in June satellites recorded 157 fires.
Topic 1
What caused it?
The boreal forests in Siberia are burning at extraordinary rates and climate change projections predict even more wildfires to come.
And as the weather turned drier and warmer, the forests in the region became more prone to wildfires.
This wildfire was a direct threat to the role of Siberian forests in absorbing carbon emissions.

Death toll. Costs
Subtopic 2
There aren't any informations on the number of victims in this wildfire.
It is only known that this Siberian wildfire destroyed much of the South Siberian forest.
The wildfire was mostly set (accidently or intentionally) by illegal timber firms who sell cheap lumber to China.
This has caused a great loss of natural resources for this area, especially wood and animal species.
How can we prevent a wildfire?
Topic 2
Many of the world's wildfires can be prevented by human intervention.
Civilians can help prevent forest fires in these ways:
- Throw away trash, in particular glass items, in designated containers.
- Never leave a fire unattended.
- Do not throw cigarettes or other burning materials like matches out of a car window.
- Do not start fire like barbecues, campfires during windy weather.
- Shoot off fireworks only in allowed areas.
- Always have water and a shovel nearby when starting fires to put them out quickly if they get out of hand.
