Bushfire is a natural part of our bushland environment but can have a devastating effect on people's lives. This program shows how to assess your property's vulnerability to bushfires and how to prepare before the bushfire season. It also explains measures you can take if a fire is approaching, how you should react if caught in a bushfire and what to do once the fire has passed. Hazards, Disasters and Survival is a series of six programs co-produced by the ABC and Emergency Management Australia. They look at steps that can be taken to limit the impact of natural hazards on communities. Each program examines a different natural hazard and provides practical advice for all Australians on what they can do to prepare so these hazards are less likely to cause disasters.
