A sad paradox in today’s management and strategy building is that all modern norms dictate an unconventional way of problem solving to aproach today’s highly dynamic challenges, in a world that is facing its most aggressive growth state ever with a rapid technological boom underway, when in reality we stick to conventional wisdom with approaches that are proved to be ineffective, yet we stick to them in an almost autistic way. The word for fire suppression, in the raging phenomenon that is affecting the entire planet with 3026 hotspots at the point of this post (based on the global fire dashboard of Greenpeace) WILDFIRES. The bellow article is an “uncovansional” way of aporching the rapidly evolving problem of wildfires with an already won “battle” from Sweden back in 2018 utilizing existing weapon systems and not dedicated fire suppression ones. Article by Mike Benitez, F-15E Strike Eagle Weapons Systems Officer in the U.S. Air Force.

Experts on "defensible space" for homes in wildfire risk areas agree that the first 5 feet outside a home are crucial to protecting that home during a wildfire event. The odds of protecting a home from fire increase when those first 5 feet are left wholly empty of anything that could ignite; that includes plantings. Visit our Be Ready, Butte, blog for an explanation of how those first 5 feet can be used to create a fire-safe perimeter for your home: https://ow.ly/ZR2n50P2KR4 #defensiblespace #hardscape #emberresistant 👆

'Every so often, in the midst of chaos, you come across an amazing, inexplicable instance of civic responsibility. Maybe the last shred of faith people have is in their firemen.'- Kurt Vonnegut, Hocus Pocus Multiple people were rescued from a deadly high-rise fire in Harlem today. The FDNY used rope rescues to extract at least 3 people from the burning structure today, when the entire department generally performs rope rescues 3-4 times in an entire year. The firefighters were guided to the victims by NYPD helicopters using FLIR to see through the smoke. This is that low-frequency, ultra-high-risk event that high-reliability organizations train and plan for....relentlessly. Today, despite the tragic death of one victim who couldn't be rescued, this is pretty much a success. A success only made possible by the relentless pursuit of excellence, the uncompromising application of the highest possible fucking standards. Nothing less will do. Period. Or else people fucking die. #FDNY #NYPD #highangle #roperescue #abseiling #rappelling #Manhattan #Harlem #NewYork #firefighter #thinredline #StFlorian #highreliability #relentlesspursuitofexcellence https://lnkd.in/gjY5PVyu
