In 1980, there were about 850 Christmas tree fires in the U.S.

That huge decrease is thanks to safer technology and greater awareness.
Let’s keep pushing that number toward zero.

Wildfire is one of the clearest faces of climate change. Hotter, longer seasons mean more carbon released and more communities at risk.

Zombie fires are turning wildfires into multi year events in Canada's North. After a bad fire season, these holdover fires can smoulder underground through winter, then reignite in spring, releasing stored carbon and making it harder for boreal forests to recover.
