med ild og varme eller
pyromaner.
Dødsbrand: En brand, hvor én eller flere personer
omkommer som følge af branden.
Brande næres af brændstof, brændbare materialer,
varme og tørre omgivelser, vinde, vindspring og
ildtornadoer.
3. Brande kan også skyldes anvendelsen af brandbomber og
atomvåben i krig.
4. Brande forårsager aske, sod og partikelforurening.
5. Den eneste redning for mennesker og dyr ved brand er evakuering fra brandområdet.
6.Dødsbrandsstatistikken viser dødsbrande og omkomne
ved brand.
Et brandvæsen, Redningsberedskabet, og brandmænd
søger at slukke ildebrande.
Brande kan slukkes med pulverslukkere og vand, vandhelikoptere og vandkanoner.

Burns aims to foster the exchange of information among all engaged
in preventing and treating the effects of burns. The journal
focuses on clinical, scientific and social aspects of these
injuries and covers the prevention of the injury, the epidemiology
of such injuries and all aspects of treatment including development
of new techniques and technologies and verification of existing
ones. Regular features include clinical and scientific papers,
state of the art reviews and descriptions of burn-care in
practice.

Congress continues to face questions about forestry practices,
funding levels, and the federal role in wildfire protection. Recent
fire seasons have been, by most standards, among the worst in the
past half century. National attention began to focus on wildfires
when a prescribed burn in May 2000 escaped control and burned 239
homes in Los Alamos, NM. President Clinton responded by requesting
a doubling of wildfire management funds, and Congress enacted much
of this proposal in the FY2001 Interior appropriations act (P.L.
106-291). President Bush responded to the severe 2002 fires by
proposing a Healthy Forests Initiative to reduce fuel loads by
expediting review processes...
The spread of housing into forests and other wildlands, combined
with various ecosystem health problems, has substantially increased
the risks to life and property from wildfire. Wildfires seem more
common than in the 1960s and 1970s, with 2005, 2006, and 2007 being
the most severe fire seasons since 1960. National attention was
focused on the problem by a fire that burned 239 houses in Los
Alamos, NM, in May 2000. Issues for Congress include oversight of
the agencies’ fire management activities and other wildland
management practices that have altered fuel loads over time;
consideration of programs and processes for reducing fuel loads;
and federal roles and responsibilities for wildfire protection and
damages. Funding for wildfire protection programs is also a
significant congressional issue, but is covered separately in CRS
Report RL33990, Federal Funding for Wildfire Control and
Management, by Ross W. Gorte and Kelsi Bracmort.
CRS: Wildfire Statistics, 2018.
Wildfires are unplanned and unwanted fires, including
lightning-caused fires, unauthorized human-caused fires, and
escaped prescribed fire projects.
