The Palomares del Río Town Hall has launched a campaign to raise awareness about the prevention of forest fires during the summer months.
The Palomares del Río Town Hall has called on the public to take extra precautions during the summer season to prevent natural spaces from becoming the scene of a fire. The campaign, disseminated through the official channels of the council, reminds that small gestures can make a big difference.
Among the recommendations is not to leave litter or objects that could cause a fire, as well as avoiding throwing cigarette butts on the ground. It is also requested not to light fires in unapproved areas and not to park vehicles on dry vegetation, a measure that is often overlooked but can be crucial.
Cleaning gardens and plots is another action that the Town Hall emphasizes. Keeping the land free of leaves, branches, and dry undergrowth significantly reduces the risk of flames spreading in the event of a fire.
The council reminds that, at the first sign of smoke or fire, the first step is to call 112 and follow the instructions of emergency services. Community cooperation is essential to protect the environment and ensure everyone's safety.
With this initiative, Palomares del Río joins the awareness campaign that is repeated every summer in the municipalities of Aljarafe, a region with abundant green areas and natural spaces that are heavily frequented during the hot months.
