Australia as one of the most fire-prone regions in the world
Australia is one of the most fire-prone regions in the world. Bushfires in Australia are widespread, and they occur regularly. The destructive fires are mostly due to the extremely high temperatures, strong winds, and relatively low humidity. These conditions make it ideal for the fire to spread rapidly. The leading causes of bush fires include human causes, weather, natural phenomena, climate change, carbon emission, seasonality, and topography. Bush fires have devastating impacts on humans, mainly due to loss of lives, homes, properties, and livestock. Organization and management of resources for dealing with emergencies such as bush fires are vital in ensuring that the consequences are reduced. When disaster conditions occur, dissemination of information must be clear to ensure that uncertainty and confusion are either avoided, prevented, or minimized. Protecting lives must be the primary concern, and the communication systems should be useful to help in planning and to control the bushfires.
Planning and control are inter-related to each other. Planning involves setting goals for an organization or a group of people, while control involves the measures that are put in place to ensure that the goals are accomplished. Planning and control are concerned with future activities and ensures that the targets that have been set are achieved. The four main phases of controlling bushfires in Australia include preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation. These are the main phases that help in planning and controlling emergencies such as bushfires.
Starting with preparedness involves oneself, others, and items that are of great importance in the event of bush fires. Secondly, the response involves attending to emergency procedures in the event of a bushfire in order to reduce the impacts. The recovery phase involves cleaning up and repairing damages. Recovery also includes calling professional restoration services after everything is under control. Finally, the mitigation phase involves completing the processes involved in risk management and developing a prevention plan in case of an emergency. The use of disaster management structures plays a critical role in planning and controlling the bushfires. The management structures include disaster management groups, coordination centers, disaster management plans, functional lead agencies, specific purpose committees, and hazard-specific primary committees. Disaster management structures help in planning, organizing, coordinating, and implementing measures that help to mitigate disaster events. Disaster management plans ensure that appropriate disaster prevention, preparedness, response, and recovery measures are undertaken. The coordination centers enhance the provision of resources and services necessary for disaster operations. The coordination centers also play a crucial role by ensuring that information is in line.
The disaster management structures are vital in planning and controlling the bush fire in terms of information dissemination and responding to emergencies. Dissemination of emergency information is essential while planning and controlling the bush fires in Australia. The main goal of proper communication during bushfire emergencies is to save lives. Timely dissemination of credible information helps to minimize losses and injuries. The residents are also able to understand the extent of the emergency and thus to simplify the responder’s task. The various communication systems used while disseminating emergency information include; loud mobile speakers, radio, electronic communications, building firearms, campus telephone systems, alerts, and word of mouth. Proper use of these methods of communication helps in minimizing the recovery phase and the overall impact of the disaster event in the community.

In conclusion, bushfires in Australia are mostly described as uncontrollable, non-structural fires burning in grass, scrub, bush, and in forested areas. There are significant causes of these rapid bushfires, and they include human causes, weather, natural phenomena, climate change, carbon emission, seasonality, and topography. Some of these factors causing bushfires are uncontrollable such as natural phenomena, which include violent wildfires that can generate their winds, which are like tornadoes, and they result from the vortices by the heat of the fire. These whirls have a reputation of hurling flaming logs and burning debris over considerable distances. Planning and control involve four major phases, which can help in lessening the impacts that are incurred when emergencies and disasters such bushfires occur. Through getting prepared, responding, providing resources, and enacting mitigation strategies, the impacts felt when disasters occur may be reduced. The education on social justice has great importance when it comes to ensuring that the people’s rights and equity are maintained.
