3 new solutions for old problems when it comes to fighting wildfires

3 new solutions for old problems when it comes to fighting wildfires

Wildfires will continue to burn across Canada in the future, but how humans prevent, monitor and extinguish them could become faster and less destructive thanks to new technology.

As Canada continues to deal with a difficult wildfire season, new technologies and techniques could help battle and prevent the blazes.

As of July 16, there were 880 active fires burning across the country which have burned about 10 million hectares of land — just under the surface area of Newfoundland not including Labrador.

The wildfires have been burning since late April in parts of Canada surprising officials, who say this year is likely to be the worst wildfire season to date.

Thousands of crews, many of which are made up of volunteer firefighters, have attempted to push back the fires but the dry landscape creates difficult working conditions.

The fires are not only burning through important ecosystems but are also forcing many people from their homes and impacting the health of Canadians coast to coast.

Despite the challenging season, there are some new technologies aiding fire crews around the world and in Canada, like better fire suppression that does not harm nature and artificial intelligence-powered cameras helping with early detection of fires.

Canadians can also participate in preventing wildfires with some techniques in farming.
