Do you know the best way to reduce smoke exposure? Prevent wildfires! Most wildfires (over half!) are human caused. Leaving campfires unattended, burning debris, equipment malfunction, and negligently discarded cigarettes are some of the ways humans start wildfires.
When you head out into the wilderness this summer, make sure the chains on your trailer aren’t dragging and your campfire is dead out before you leave it!
Minimizing your exposure to smoke is the best way to protect your health. Read on for several ways to do that:
We already told you that smoke contains tiny particles smaller than your red blood cells. Those smoke particles can easily pass into your bloodstream through your lungs and cause serious health problems – even in short exposures. Problems include:
Difficulty breathing
Increased risk of asthma attacks
Eye irritation
Increased risk of heart attacks
Some people are more sensitive to smoke exposure than others:
Children
Elderly
Pregnant people
People with pre-existing heart and lung conditions
