Abstract

In terms of forest fires 2005 was the worse year of all the years on record, this was the origin of numerous news wich frequently falsify the real situation.

To oppose this trend and to disclose some aspects less well known of the problem of forest fire, this article examines in general terms, four the analyzed aspects, although each one of them could be the object of a deeper study in the future.

Our intention was to illustrate by images all the situations described. For that reason pictures are far more abundant then usual.
