In spite of all the efforts from the governments and the operational agencies, and the contribution from the scientific and technical communities, the impact of forest fires persists and, at least in some regions, even with an increasing trend. The tragic fires of Portugal in 2017 and of Greece in 2018, with unprecedented numbers of fatalities among the civil population in modern times, drive our attention to the fact that what is at stake in forest fires is not only the natural environment, the climate, the landscape, the economy or the ecology. In these and in other episodes from the recent years, all over the World, forest fires have threatened the safety and wellbeing of people and have shown how capable they are of destroying the greatest value that we have to protect, that of human life.
