In 2016 in Alberta, Canada, a wildfire destryed ver 2,000 huses and became ne f the mst expensive natural disasters in Canada’s histry. Wildfires are caused when frests are left t grw and get t dry. They can becme dry when there is a drught r when there is nt enugh snw t keep them wet. Then a persn wh might be hiking r camping can start a fire r lightning can strike a tree which als causes a fire.
Because the frest is dry, ther trees quickly catch fire. Wildfires can spread very quickly and many peple, including firefighters, are caught by surprise when a fire races ver a hill twards them. The best way t prevent a wildfire destrying yur life is t pay clse attentin t the news and be ready t evacuate very quickly if authrities say it’s time. A huse r car can be replaced, but lives are far mre precius.
Give a grup presentatin t yur class.
