Student Association for Fire Ecology

SAFE @ The University of Florida

On Tuesday, March 17, 2009 members of SAFE and the Kobziar Fire Science Lab brought fire science to the Reitz Union colonnade.  Members, joined by Smokey Bear, shared information about the importance of prescribed fire in Florida for restoring and maintaining healthy ecosystems and reducing the potential for dangerous wildfires.  Members also distributed fliers and bumper stickers and signed up fellow students who were interested in participating in a prescribed fire at the Austin Cary Memorial Forest.
