Fire risk: stay vigilant

The persistent drought we are currently experiencing significantly increases the risk of fires in natural areas. Most fires and other forest fires are unfortunately caused by human negligence and everyday actions that may seem harmless. Reminder of good practices: * Do not light fires within 100 meters of natural areas with a risk of fire spread; * Never throw cigarette butts outside designated bins; * Avoid parking your car in tall grass, which can ignite upon contact with the exhaust pipe; * Do not use tools that produce sparks or heat (angle grinder, heat gun, etc.) for your work; * Be very careful with barbecues: place them far from any flammable vegetation and have extinguishing means ready; * Respect the instructions of local authorities regarding various events (fireworks or others). In case of fire, call 112. If you are near the fire, evacuate quickly and go to a safe place. Together, let's stay vigilant!
