Fire is initiated through the availability of three factors together:
- oxygen (or air)

- the means for setting fire (material friction in dry air, remains of a cigarette, ...)
Extinguishinh fire is done mainly through insulating the burned subsatance from oxygen using water or other extenguishing materials.
