Fire- Fighting strategies
Fuel- Remove the fuel, and the oxygen has nothing to react with. The fire dies.
Oxygen- Remove the oxygen, and the fuel molecules have nothing to react with. The fire dies.
Heat- Remove the heat, and the fuel cannot break down into active molecules. The fire dies.
Retardant- Add a retardant to fire- fighting water, and the water will soak deeply into fuel. The fire dies.
