Given that the majority of forest / wildfires are caused by human activity I think that we should bring back that cultural icon: “Smokey the Bear!”
Growing up I remember seeing signs like this all along rural roads, rural highways and concession lines. Subconsciously and subliminally it made one think and perhaps take precautions.
But not anymore. They have disappeared from our cultural landscape.
They should also bring back lighters and ashtrays in cars and trucks. I once saw a guy flick his butt of the window of his moving car because he no other option to rid himself of the burning ember. Most cars today do not have ashtrays or lighters.
Just saying.
