Green forest fire notification in Brazil

On 18/09/2026, a forest fire started in Brazil, until 24/09/2026.

In plain language

A forest fire has been confirmed in Brazil and is expected to remain active for about one week. This is a level two severity event, meaning it is a significant fire that local teams are currently managing.

What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start during hot, dry weather when a spark from lightning or human activity ignites dry plants. Once started, wind can help the fire spread quickly across the land by providing oxygen and moving embers.

Stay indoors with windows and doors closed to keep the air clean, and always follow the guidance of local emergency officials.
