Let's save the forest!

The forest is not only a crucial source of raw materials and valuable building materials for our national economy, but also a source of clean air for our cities and a place for healthy recreation for the population.

One of the most dangerous enemies of the forest is forest fires, which destroy not only the forest but also the beneficial animals and birds living in it.

A carelessly thrown burning match, an unextinguished cigarette butt, a campfire, negligence when burning logging residues, agricultural fires – these are the main causes of forest fires.

Therefore, when in the forest, it is necessary to be attentive and careful with fire, strictly observe fire safety rules in the forest: do not throw burning matches and cigarette butts, do not make campfires in forest areas, on peatlands, and in places with dry grass, do not use cars with faulty fuel and ignition systems in the forest, do not leave oily or flammable soaked wiping material in the forest, do not burn dry grass under the forest canopy and in forest clearings.
