Why Fire Prevention Month Matters
🔥 The history of Fire Prevention Month dates back to The Great Chicago Fire of 1871, one of the most infamous fires in American history. While its exact cause remains a mystery, legend has it that a cow kicked over a kerosene lantern, sparking a blaze that: ✅ Burned 3.3 square miles ✅ Left 100,000 people homeless ✅ Claimed nearly 300 lives
💥 But did you know? That same night, an even deadlier fire broke out in Peshtigo, Wisconsin, killing an estimated 1,500 – 2,500 people and destroying 1,875 square miles across 12 communities. It remains the deadliest fire in U.S. history.
🏗️ These tragic events led to the creation of fire and building codes that have saved countless lives. While some may see these regulations as inconvenient, they are essential in preventing disasters like those of 1871.
