Safety Officer   Fire needs fuel, oxygen, and heat to survive. In forests, the fuel is provided by trees and bushes. In houses and buildings, the fuel is wood, furniture, books, and papers. Oxygen is not hard to find, seeing as it is all around us in the air. And without heat, the fire could not continue.

When wood reaches 572º, it gives off a gas which reacts with oxygen to make a flame. The flame will heat the remaining wood, making the fire grow stronger. This will happen even on cold days. The temperature at which something ignites is called its flash point. Paper burns at 451º Fahrenheit. Socks don’t burn until the temperature reaches 600º. Every material, even iron, has a flash point.
