Snow on the ground doesn’t always mean the end of wildfire season. ❄️🔥 The Southeast has a busy prescribed fire program and current wildfires in states like Virginia and Kentucky remind us to stay vigilant in our effort to find solutions! #wildfireseason

Firefighters are facing a challenging battle with the Maui wildfires, which started off as a wildfire but quickly turned into a massive conflagration of structures being consumed. #firstresponders #wildlandfirefighter #maui #firefighters #firefighting #firefighter

Feeling overwhelmed and alone as a wildland firefighter? Talking to a therapist, peer, or someone who has gone through the same thing can help you get things off your chest. #firefighter #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #mentalhealthsupport

At Wildfire Industry Collective, we understand the importance of engaging with the real estate development community. Real estate provides over $337 billion in depreciated value. Let's work together to make the most of these valuable resources! #realestateagent #realtor

It’s been 3 years since my son’s first Christmas 🎄, but the memories of fighting the Thomas Fire in Ventura County still remain lodged in my heart. ❤️ I’m so grateful that I was able to be a part of this important effort while also being with my family. #wildfire #firefighter

A new report from the Joint Economic Committee shows that the true annual cost of wildfires is an alarming $900 billion, affecting communities with higher living costs and lower quality of life. #wildland #wildland_firefighters #wildlands #wildfireready #wildfires

During the off-season, wild land firefighters often look for other work such as ski patrolling or school, and some even collect unemployment. It is important we find ways to help support these critical members of our community during these times which can be difficult for them!

Wildland firefighters don’t have the same protection as firefighters in more structured environments, like the use of contained breathing apparatus or barrier protection. But, they do their best to stay safe, using handkerchiefs and dust masks to help keep out smoke!

Wildland firefighters deserve PPE solutions tailored for their unique needs. That’s why we need PPE companies with solutions that specifically help protect firefighters airways, so they can work longer and safer shifts. #ppe #wildland #wildland_firefighters #wildlands

I wanted to do something adventurous and exciting out of high school, so I chose to become a firefighter! After seeing images of wildland fires on CNN, I knew that was the career I wanted to pursue. #wildland #wildland_firefighters #wildlands #wildfireready #wildfires

This summer, the Senate approved $2.65 billion for wildfire suppression - but that doesn’t cover the wages and expenses of wildland firefighters, or the preparedness dollars needed to procure new tools and acquire training. #senate #wildland #wildland_firefighters #wildlands

For years when I worked in wildfire, I had to rely on earning overtime hours to make it through the winter. It was difficult and meant time away from friends and family, but worth it in the end for the reward of a job well done. #wildland #wildland_firefighters #wildlands

We need to take action to address the wildfire crisis! The Joint Economic Committee has reported that investing in wildfire preparedness, mitigation, and suppression could be the key to success. Let’s work together to ensure our land is protected. #wildfires

Wildland firefighters are bravely fighting wildfires on the frontlines, but this crisis doesn’t have to stay the same. Businesses can innovate products and services that can help, and Congress can do its part too! #congress #wildfires #wildlandfirefighter #wildlandfire

According to a new report from the Joint Economic Committee, fare compensation for wildland firefighters is a major issue that needs to be addressed. We must ensure that these brave men and women are properly taken care of! #wildlandfirefighters #wildland #wildfires #wildland
