Forest fires are global, ecological and economic problems. More than 50,000 forest fires are registered annually worldwide and they destroy about 400,000 hectares of forests. The prevention of forest fires, their control and reclamation of burned areas requires the engagement of all institutions and subjects of the society at the local, state and intergovernmental levels. In the forests managed by Public Enterprise for Forest Management Srbijašume over the period 2000-2009, there were 880 forest fires with 16,459.78 hectares of burned areas. Climate changes are classified as some of the greatest global ecological problems of modern civilisation which, if urgent and adequate measures are not undertaken, can result in further increase in air temperature, predicted between 1.4 deg C and 5.8 deg C till the end of the 21st century, compared to 1990. Forest ecosystems are subject to unfavourable effects of climate changes, they are significant carbon sinks and an important potential for global warming mitigation, therefore they require special forest management methods which includes protection, enhancement of the actual status and establishment of new forests. Forest protection against forest fires, especially in extreme climate conditions favourable for wildfires, is one of the most important goals not only of PE Srbijašume, but also of the entire society, taking into account forest significance and forest functions. The year 2011 was declared the International Year of Forests by the United Nations to raise both professional and public awareness and strengthen the protection, conservation and sustainable development of forests as the most complex ecosystems on the Planet.
