The government made an appeal to individual conscience for the prevention of forest fires. Rui Rocha, a figure mentioned in the context of the appeal, asked the population to take responsibility in the use of the forest as a prevention measure.
The appeal also includes the need for vigilance on the part of citizens. People are encouraged to be alert to situations that may represent fire risks.
Furthermore, the government appeal refers to the reporting of suspicious movements. The population is encouraged to report any activity that they consider strange and that may be related to the risk of fires.
