What is Withering Wildfires?
The Mission
To stop the continuous spread of wildfires by creating an Artifical Intelligence Algorithm that predicts wildfires in regions with 80% accuracy.
But Why?
As we all know, wildfires are detrimentally brutal to society's fundamental development, as well as its citizens. We cannot risk losing so much infrastructure, money, and even lives. This results in a loss of property and it's vital to prevent this. Therefore, it's important to take the necessary precautionary measures to keep yourself and your family safe in case there is ever a wildfire.
Extra Resources
One of this project's most crucial goals is to make the lives of citizens as well as firemen easier, and to alleviate the total damage of wildfires. That being said, our team has collected great reources to check out if there is any sort of risk of a wildfire occuring in your local area.
Quick Facts and Figures about Wildfires, and What We Are Doing to Help
Geographical events shape our universe. On the other hand, natural disasters destroy Mother Earth and its inhabitants.
In fact...
- The forest fire that incinerated northern British Columbia and Alberta grew to a final size of over 3.5 million acres.
- By December 18, 2020 there were about 57,000 wildfires in the world.
- Fire also releases carbon dioxide—a key greenhouse gas—into the atmosphere.
- California's worst wildfire has killed 85 people, and 11 residents in the Northern California counties where the blaze tore through in early November are still missing.
This is just some of the most saddening facts of wildfires. It's important to mitigate the risks of wildfires, especially in regions where wildfires are unbelievably common. And thanks to Withering Wildfires, it is now possible.
