The warning comes after a recent campaign was launched encouraging people to light sky lanterns to show support for the NHS. All emergency services across Wales are under increased pressure during this unprecedented time. Sky lanterns can and do start fires wherever they land, which can tie up the vital resources needed to respond to Coronavirus. This can leave many crews unavailable for other tasks including providing support for the NHS during the current pandemic by driving ambulances or delivering medicines.


Every year the Fire and Rescue Service have to deal with hundreds of deliberately set grass fires, which are particularly common during the fine and dry weather around Easter. Figures for last year show there were 566 deliberate grass fires in April 2019\. There have already been 169 this year in South Wales alone. 


Grass fires can devastate the environment and wildlife, and put communities and the firefighters who tackle them at serious risk. Smoke from grass fires also causes significant air pollution and is a serious hazard for people suffering from respiratory and other conditions – including coronavirus.


It is not just sky lanterns which people have been warned against using. Landowners have been asked to avoid clearing land outside of the legal burning season. Such fires can all too easily spread out of control, leading to large areas of land being completely unusable for any agricultural purpose. Fire Services across Wales have also appealed for people to behave responsibly, after being called to hundreds of incidents which have taken place since the school closures; with fires often lasting for days before crews are able to tackle them.


The Deputy Minister for Housing and Local Government, Hannah Blythyn said:



> The risk of grass fires starting where sky lanterns have landed is well\-known. Deliberately setting grass fires by any means is totally irresponsible and unacceptable. At a time of increased pressure, we need to work together and avoid putting further strain on Wales’ emergency services. 
> 
> 
> Whilst we fully understand and encourage people to show their support and gratitude to members of the NHS for all they do, we strongly discourage people from showing that support by releasing sky lanterns.


Deputy Chief Fire Officer, Roger Thomas, Chair of the Strategic Arson Reduction Board for Wales said:



> The releasing of highly flammable sky lanterns poses a significant fire hazard with the potential to endanger properties, our environment and put a further strain on Fire and Rescue Services and partner agencies at this difficult time.

> Whilst I recognise that people wish to show solidarity for NHS workers I would urge them to seek alternative ways of doing so, such as the weekly ‘Clap for our Carers’ or through charitable donations.

Mae Llywodraeth Cymru a Gwasanaethau Tân ac Achub Cymru wedi rhybuddio pobl rhag defnyddio llusernau awyr i ddangos eu cefnogaeth i’r GIG yn ystod COVID\-19\.


Daw’r rhybudd yn dilyn ymgyrch ddiweddar a oedd yn annog pobl i gynnau llusernau awyr i ddangos eu cefnogaeth i’r GIG. Mae’r holl wasanaethau brys ar draws Cymru dan bwysau cynyddol yn ystod y cyfnod digynsail hwn. Gall llusernau awyr gynnau tanau pan fyddant yn glanio, a gall hyn ddefnyddio adnoddau hanfodol sydd eu hangen i ymateb i achosion o’r coronafeirws. Gall olygu na fydd llawer o griwiau ar gael ar gyfer tasgau eraill gan gynnwys rhoi cymorth i’r GIG yn ystod y pandemig presennol drwy yrru ambiwlansiau neu ddanfon meddyginiaeth.


Bob blwyddyn, mae’n rhaid i’r Gwasanaeth Tân ac Achub ymdrin â channoedd o danau glaswellt bwriadol, sy’n arbennig o gyffredin yn ystod y cyfnod o dywydd braf a sych adeg y Pasg. Mae ffigurau y llynedd yn dangos y cafwyd 566 o danau glaswellt bwriadol ym mis Ebrill 2019\. Rydym wedi gweld 169 o danau yn barod eleni yn y De yn unig. 


Gall tanau glaswellt ddifrodi’r amgylchedd a bywyd gwyllt, a rhoi cymunedau a’r diffoddwyr tân sy’n eu hymladd mewn perygl difrifol. Mae mwg o danau glaswellt hefyd yn achosi llygredd aer sylweddol ac yn beryglus iawn i bobl sy’n dioddef o gyflyrau anadlol a chyflyrau eraill – gan gynnwys coronafeirws.


Nid llusernau awyr yn unig y rhybuddiwyd pobl rhag eu defnyddio. Gofynnwyd i dirfeddianwyr osgoi clirio tir y tu allan i’r tymor llosgi cyfreithiol. Gall tanau o’r fath ledaenu yn afreolus, gan olygu na ellir defnyddio ardaloedd mawr o dir o gwbl at unrhyw ddiben amaethyddol. Mae’r Gwasanaethau Tân ar draws Cymru hefyd wedi apelio ar bobl i ymddwyn yn gyfrifol, ar ôl cael galwadau i gannoedd o achosion ers cau’r ysgolion; gyda thanau yn aml ynghyn am ddyddiau cyn i griwiau fedru mynd i’r afael â nhw.


Dywedodd y Dirprwy Weinidog Tai a Llywodraeth Leol, Hannah Blythyn:



> Mae llawer o bobl yn gwybod am y risg y gall tanau glaswellt gynnau yn lle bydd llusernau awyr yn glanio. Mae cynnau tanau glaswellt yn fwriadol mewn unrhyw ffordd yn gwbl anghyfrifol ac annerbyniol. Ar adeg pan mae gwasanaethau brys Cymru dan bwysau cynyddol, mae angen inni gydweithio ac osgoi rhoi straen pellach arnynt. 
> 
> 
> Er ein bod yn deall bod pobl eisiau dangos eu cefnogaeth a’u gwerthfawrogiad i’r GIG am eu holl waith, a’n bod yn eu hannog i wneud hynny, nid ydym yn awyddus i bobl ddangos eu cefnogaeth drwy ryddhau llusernau awyr.


Dywedodd y Dirprwy Brif Swyddog Tân, Roger Thomas, Cadeirydd y Bwrdd Strategol ar gyfer Lleihau Tanau Bwriadol Cymru:



> Mae rhyddhau llusernau awyr fflamadwy iawn yn arwain at risg sylweddol o dân a’r posibilrwydd o beryglu eiddo, ein hamgylchedd, a rhoi straen pellach ar y Gwasanaethau Tân ac Achub ac asiantaethau partneriaeth yn y cyfnod anodd hwn.

> Er fy mod yn cydnabod dymuniad pobl i ddangos eu cefnogaeth i weithwyr y GIG, rwy’n eu hannog i ddod o hyd i ffyrdd eraill o wneud hyn, fel clapio i’r gofalwyr yn wythnosol, neu roi arian i elusen.
