Firefighters United for Safety Ethics and Ecology

Firefighters United for Safety, Ethics, and Ecology (FUSEE) promotes safe, ethical, and ecological wildland fire management. We strive to inform and empower fire management workers and their citizen supporters to become torchbearers for a new paradigm in fire management. Instead of reactively fighting against fire, we support proactively working with fire to protect rural communities, restore fire-adapted ecosystems and ecological processes, and preserve fire-dependent species and habitats. By wisely using fire in a philosophy of Ecological Fire Management, we can maximize the social and ecological benefits of fire while mitigating firefighter risks, minimizing taxpayers costs, and avoiding unnecessary suppression impacts on natural resources and native ecosystems.
