Almost all wildfires in NS are human caused. Prevention is key. Everyone has a role to play in preventing wildfires. Check before you burn novascotia.ca/burnsafe & if you are concerned, report what you see by calling 1-800-565-2224 or 911. #nstrails #hfxgov #hikens

Almost all wildfires in NS are human caused – so prevention is our first line of defence. And wildfire prevention is everyone's responsibility. Let’s not have another season like last year’s. Check before you burn: novascotia.ca/burnsafe/

We’re starting to see some red on the BurnSafe map and the weekend forecast is for warm, dry weather. That means there could be more risk of wildfires. Please check and follow the daily burn restrictions at novascotia.ca/burnsafe/ .

You can now report #HemlockWoollyAdelgid sightings in #NovaScotia on iNaturalist:
inaturalist.ca/observations?…
ALT "One click to a map of where HWA has been found in Nova Scotia. iNaturalist is a place where you can report hemlock woolly adelgid (HWA) sightings. Also, anyone can view a map of the sightings at the following url : https://inaturalist.ca/observations?place_id=6853... Please note that the map only shows reported sightings. HWA could be in an area but has not been reported on iNaturalist. That's where you can help. If you find HWA, please add it to iNaturalist. Or we'll do it for you if you'd prefer. And you can make the location approximate so it isn't tied to a specific location. (say you wanted to report HWA was in the area but you did not want to disclose that it was on your property) Thank you!"

Improper grey water disposal can pollute streams, harm wildlife & diminish other visitors’ experiences. With some preparation, you’ll have a positive impact when you dispose of grey water properly.📍Ancestral land of the Atakapa, Koasati, & Adai Peoples. #LeaveNoTrace
