When wildfires strike, it's up to elite forces of specially trained firefighters such as the Arrowhead Hotshots to contain and extinguish the blaze. Nova: Fire Wars takes a look at the work of the Arrowhead Hotshots, how they fight fires, what equipment they use, what role fire plays in the ecosystem of a forest, and why some firefighters and environmentalists feel we need to take a new approach to dealing with fires. Produced as part of the awarding winning PBS science series Nova, Nova: Fire Wars was first broadcast on May 7, 2002. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi
