Wildfires represent major threats to the natural environment and human life. The increasing global risk of forest fires, driven by climate change, has expanded to previously unaffected areas. Challenges in landscape fire prevention include inconsistent data reporting, fire services primarily specialized in urban-focused firefighting, and insufficient regional cooperation. Wildland firefighting is physically and mentally demanding, involving long shifts under hazardous conditions. A survey method was used to collect data and evaluate the knowledge of Polish firefighters, including active-duty personel and fire school cadets, regarding the environmental consequences of wildfires, relevant regulations, and management practices. Questionnaires were distributed through a professional firefighter forum and in collaboration with State Fire Service schools. The findings indicate that fire school cadets, in certain areas, demonstrate greater knowledge about forest fires than active-duty firefighters, suggesting that adapting the curriculum to current challenges is effective.
