Ninety-nine percent of wildfires are the result of human activity such as backyard burning and campfires. That means most of North Carolina’s wildfires are avoidable. Escaped yard debris burns are often due to carelessness. Someone burns during poor weather conditions, they turn their backs, and that’s all it takes. Don’t let your backyard fire turn into a wildfire. #ResistWildfireNC | N.C. Forest Service
