Oct. 2009: 29-30
Fire is one of the most important things on Earth. Fire has helped us in so many ways for example it cooks the food we eat, it keeps us warm, it provides light and so much more. Fire always has occurred naturally in nature for example wild fires. About 250,000 years ago, prehistoric men started to use fire in their everyday lives to cook food and to see at night so they could stay up latter then sunset. You may wonder why were early humans weren’t using fire before. They were afraid of it because they had only seen it in nature. Another reason is they did not know how to make it. Fire has had a big influence on man kind fire let us move to colder parts of the worlds like Europe. In conclusions fire is very important and It would be hard to live without it but remember as Mary Beth Cox said “DO NOT play with fire!!!”
