Tag: gel-like fluid to prevent wildfires

CA Forest Fires can be Prevented and Put Out

Stanford researchers have developed a gel-like fluid to prevent wildfires
Scientists and engineers worked with state and local agencies to develop and test a long-lasting, environmentally benign fire-retarding material.

If used on high-risk areas, the simple, affordable treatment could dramatically cut the number of fires that occur each year.

 

The Stanford-developed treatment contains only nontoxic starting materials widely used in food, drug, cosmetic and agricultural products. The unique properties of these gel-like retardant fluids allow them to be applied using standard agricultural spraying equipment or from aircraft. While it washes away slowly, providing the ability to protect treated areas against fire for months, the materials eventually degrade.

 

New treatment prevents wildfires

Jaron Lanier delivered a blistering indictment of the ad-supported Internet model on Tuesday, calling for a paid model to support Facebook and Google. The companies aren't social networks, he said, but rather "behavior modification empires."
