In recent years, increasing forest fires are threatening our ecosystem. Experts emphasize the importance of careful tree planting efforts after these fires.

Prof. Dr. İbrahim Turna from KTÜ Faculty of Forestry states that over 90% of the causes of fires are human-induced. It is crucial to choose the right tree species for reforestation after a fire.

He emphasizes that interventions after a fire must be ecologically appropriate, stating, "Our priority after a fire is to reforest with native species."

Turkey is taking significant steps in combating forest fires. The aircraft and equipment used in firefighting play a critical role in controlling these fires.

Preventive measures include reducing flammable materials in forests and creating windbreaks. This can help slow down the spread of fires.

Finally, it is emphasized that volunteers in firefighting must be cautious. Those who do not understand fire dynamics are advised not to intervene directly.
