Original Note:
This 'back fire' is a fire that is deliberately initiated in front of an active fire front, usually a forest fire, or some other type of wildfire. The backfire consumes some of the combustible material and creates a fire belt that the wildfire has difficulty crossing. https://ctif.org/news/prevention-control-using-back-fire-combat-wildfire https://x.com/volcaholic1/status/1766516086076223707
