We trust firefighters to save us, but what if the real key to fire safety starts long before they arrive? Dr. Burt Clark, a veteran of the fire service for over 55 years, shares hard-hitting truths about America’s fire culture. His message is clear: luck is not a strategy when it comes to fire safety. He challenges the myths surrounding fire protection and reveals why prevention - not response - saves the most lives. 3 Key Takeaways: Fire prevention starts with you. Many home fire deaths occur before firefighters even arrive. The most critical step? Ensure your home has working smoke alarms and test them regularly. Small changes can save lives. From keeping flammable materials away from your home to closing bedroom doors at night, simple actions dramatically increase survival chances. We need to rethink fire protection. While hotels and businesses are required to have sprinkler systems, most new homes are not. Advocating for fire-safe building codes can help protect future generations. Your safety starts with you. Test your smoke alarms, close your doors at night, and push for better fire safety laws in your community.
