Eagle Creek Fire Research Paper

The Eagle Creek Fire is a wildfire in the Columbia river gorge, across Oregon and Washington and has burned hundreds of thousands of acres and has risked people's lives and pets. Millions of your taxpayer dollars have been spent to try and stop this fire, along with many people risking their lives to stop it.

The fire was started by a fifteen year old boy who was with a group of friends on the night of September 7th, 2017. He was throwing fireworks into the forest. The forest was very hot and dry that night, so it caught fire. His punishment should be that he has to go help put out the fire, see his damage firsthand and what the firemen have to go through. He should have to face the people he has hurt and apologize for his wrong doing. He
should also have to do lots of community service and help rebuild the forest.

This fire has gone on long enough. The boy should have to apologize for what has happened. If people have to risk their lives because he was stupid enough to throw fireworks into a dry forest, then he should have to risk his life to stop it too.
