Cultural Context of Fire
Prior to 1788 fire was not a hazard:
The secret of fire in our
traditional knowledge is that
it is a thing that brings the
land alive again. So we do
not necessarily see fire as
bad and destructive...But it
is not a thing to play with
unless people understand
the nature of fire.

Using Fire in Northern Australia , Tropical Savannas CRC, 2001

Disaster Decision Making
• Research in the last 15 –
20 years indicates that
there is almost universal
failure to make good
decisions in the face of
infrequent natural
hazards. This is largely
due to hard-wired
elements of human
cognition...
Cognitive bias
• Kahneman, D 2011
“Thinking, fast and Slow
• Framing
• Availability heuristic
• Unreasonable Optimism
• Outcome expectancy
• Shifting blame /
responsibility
• Persistent failure to grasp
probability
