伯克利大学研究人员在研究受过去火灾影响的地区的基础上,确定了保护家庭免遭野火的关键战略。 UC Berkeley researchers have identified key strategies to protect homes from wildfires, based on studying areas affected by past fires. 它们强调通过在100英尺建筑物内清除植被、使用防火材料用于屋顶和外墙以及维持消防用水供应来创造一个防御空间。 They emphasize creating a defensible space by clearing vegetation within 100 feet of structures, using fire-resistant materials for roofs and exterior walls, and maintaining a water supply for firefighting. 这些措施可以大大减少家庭在野火中起火的风险。 These measures can significantly reduce the risk of a home catching fire during a wildfire.
