In the field with the Geronimo Hotshots, an elite crew of Apache firefighters who battle the biggest wildfires in the nation.
Home for the Hotshots is on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in southeastern Arizona, where unemployment is high, and firefighting jobs are one of the few stable opportunities for work. "Your mom, your dad, your uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins—one of them probably fights fire," says Squad Leader Jeff Belvado. The Geronimo Hotshots are one of seven Native American hotshot crews in the United States who are sponsored by the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
The film features GoPro footage from the Geronimo Hotshots' 2013 fire season, shot by crew member Samson Belvado.

Wildfires can be really sneaky and often begin unnoticed. They are usually triggered by lightning or accidents that most times are caused by irresponsible people. They spread quickly, igniting brush, trees, and homes, destroying thousands of acres of virgin land and killing innocent people. So next time you go camping or visit the forest make sure to put out your cigarette first or douse the campfire because the 25 wildfires that follow will hopefully help you realize that the consequences of an unmanageable wildfire can be terrifying, chaotic, and devastating.

Today's wildfires burn, on average, twice the amount of land they did in 1970. The reason? We've been working too hard to put them out.

A US farmer risks his life to stop a wildfire that broke out in a hayfield in Weld County, Colorado.
Eric Howard uses his tractor and a set of discs to plough up a firebreak just a few feet from the scorching blaze.
After a thunderstorm brought lightning to a rural area near Brighton, Colorado the fire broke out and quickly consumed 30 acres of an 80 acre field.
Mr Howard's actions were designed to prevent the fire's spread as it continued its path across the land.

3 separate wildfires have been raging along Spain's Costa Blanca since Sunday.
The fires, which authorities say were started deliberately, have been aggravated by soaring forty-two-degree temperatures and strong winds. Buildings in the town of Javea and large areas of vegetation near the holiday destination of Benidorm were destroyed.
Authorities almost had the first fire under control when the others began.

Wildfire
A wildfire or wildland fire is an uncontrolled fire in an area of combustible vegetation that occurs in the countryside area. Depending on the type of vegetation that is burned, a wildfire can also be classified as a brush fire, bush fire, forest fire, desert fire, grass fire, hill fire, peat fire, vegetation fire, or veld fire. A wildfire differs from other fires by its extensive size, the speed at which it can spread out from its original source, its potential to change direction unexpectedly, and its ability to jump gaps such as roads, rivers and fire breaks. Wildfires are characterized in terms of the cause of ignition, their physical properties such as speed of propagation, the combustible material present, and the effect of weather on the fire.
Bushfires in Australia are a common occurrence; because of the generally hot and dry climate, they pose a great risk to life and infrastructure during all times of the year, though mostly throughout the hotter months of summer and spring. In the United States, there are typically between 60,000 and 80,000 wildfires that occur each year, burning 3 million to 10 million acres (12,000 to 40,000 square kilometres) of land depending on the year. Fossil records and human history contain accounts of wildfires, as wildfires can occur in periodic intervals. Wildfires can cause extensive damage, both to property and human life, but they also have various beneficial effects on wilderness areas. Some plant species depend on the effects of fire for growth and reproduction, although large wildfires may also have negative ecological effects.

Stunning GoPro Footage From the Front Lines of Wildfire
In the field with the Geronimo Hotshots, an elite crew of Apache firefighters who battle the biggest wildfires in the nation. Home for the Hotshots is on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in southeastern Arizona, where unemployment is high, and firefighting jobs are one of the few stable opportunities for work. "Your mom, your dad, your uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins—one of them probably fights fire," says Squad Leader Jeff Belvado. The Geronimo Hotshots are one of seven Native American hotshot crews in the United States who are sponsored by the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The film features GoPro footage from the Geronimo Hotshots' 2013 fire season, shot by crew member Samson Belvado.

25 Most Destructive Wildfires Ever Recorded In History
Wildfires can be really sneaky and often begin unnoticed. They are usually triggered by lightning or accidents that most times are caused by irresponsible people. They spread quickly, igniting brush, trees, and homes, destroying thousands of acres of virgin land and killing innocent people. So next time you go camping or visit the forest make sure to put out your cigarette first or douse the campfire because the 25 wildfires that follow will hopefully help you realize that the consequences of an unmanageable wildfire can be terrifying, chaotic, and devastating.

Colorado farmer battles wildfires in tractor
A US farmer risks his life to stop a wildfire that broke out in a hayfield in Weld County, Colorado. Eric Howard uses his tractor and a set of discs to plough up a firebreak just a few feet from the scorching blaze. After a thunderstorm brought lightning to a rural area near Brighton, Colorado the fire broke out and quickly consumed 30 acres of an 80 acre field. Mr Howard's actions were designed to prevent the fire's spread as it continued its path across the land.

Why wildfires are necessary - Jim Schulz
View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/why-wildfires-are-necessary-jim-schulz Our early ancestors relied on lightning to cause forest fires, from which they could collect coals and burning sticks to help them cook food and clear land. Yet, it wasn’t just humans who benefited from these natural phenomena. Even as they destroyed trees, fires also helped the forests themselves. Jim Schulz outlines the benefits of wildfire.

In the field with the Geronimo Hotshots, an elite crew of Apache firefighters who battle the biggest wildfires in the nation.
Home for the Hotshots is on the San Carlos Apache Reservation in southeastern Arizona, where unemployment is high, and firefighting jobs are one of the few stable opportunities for work. "Your mom, your dad, your uncles, brothers, sisters, cousins—one of them probably fights fire," says Squad Leader Jeff Belvado. The Geronimo Hotshots are one of seven Native American hotshot crews in the United States who are sponsored by the Bureau of Indian Affairs.
The film features GoPro footage from the Geronimo Hotshots' 2013 fire season, shot by crew member Samson Belvado.

Wildfires can be really sneaky and often begin unnoticed. They are usually triggered by lightning or accidents that most times are caused by irresponsible people. They spread quickly, igniting brush, trees, and homes, destroying thousands of acres of virgin land and killing innocent people. So next time you go camping or visit the forest make sure to put out your cigarette first or douse the campfire because the 25 wildfires that follow will hopefully help you realize that the consequences of an unmanageable wildfire can be terrifying, chaotic, and devastating.

A US farmer risks his life to stop a wildfire that broke out in a hayfield in Weld County, Colorado.
Eric Howard uses his tractor and a set of discs to plough up a firebreak just a few feet from the scorching blaze.
After a thunderstorm brought lightning to a rural area near Brighton, Colorado the fire broke out and quickly consumed 30 acres of an 80 acre field.
Mr Howard's actions were designed to prevent the fire's spread as it continued its path across the land.

Our early ancestors relied on lightning to cause forest fires, from which they could collect coals and burning sticks to help them cook food and clear land. Yet, it wasn’t just humans who benefited from these natural phenomena. Even as they destroyed trees, fires also helped the forests themselves. Jim Schulz outlines the benefits of wildfire.

The fires, which authorities say were started deliberately, have been aggravated by soaring forty-two-degree temperatures and strong winds. Buildings in the town of Javea and large areas of vegetation near the holiday destination of Benidorm were destroyed.

You must be living on wildfires
You must be living on wildfires
That's why your eyes
Are smoke and ash
You must be living on earthquakes
You must be living on earthquakes
Must be why my heart breaks
Every time you pass
Oh no matter how I try
I just watch you blow by
In a lens
Ahh, ahh, ah ah ah
You must be living on front lines
You must be living on front lines
Must be why sometimes
I cant get past
You must be living on land mines
You must be living on land mines
Must be why your crying
Broken glass
Oh no matter how I try
I gotta watch you blow by
In a lens
Ohh, ohh, ohh
With all your living on landslides
With all your living on flood tides
It's a wonder how you rise
Above all that
Oh, no matter how I try
I gotta watch you blow by
In a lens
Yeah, no matter how I try
I gotta watch you blow by
