For each fire type, include a sentence or two examining why these categories are a risk in your community.
Your essay should be a minimum of two pages, not including the title and reference pages. You must use a minimum of three sources, one of which may be your textbook. All sources used will be properly cited. Your essay, including all references, will be formatted in APA style.
Use structural fires and vehicle fires (in North America specifically) as your two.
My text is Kirks Fire Investigation, 8th Edition if that helps.

build his party into a stronger and more organized political party for future
elections and administrations, or did they engage in the act of predation of their political
party with long term consequences of weakening it for future elections and
administrations? A strong response paper will define and apply Daniel Galvins concepts
of party building and party predation to the Trump or Obama presidency, and bring in
