In a 2016 PSA against trailer chain dragging, the National Ad Council paired with the US Forest Service and National Association of State Foresters (NASF), gave a visual warning of the impact of improper chain handling. In a somewhat apocalyptic visual, the PSA entitled "Rise from the Ashes" depicts the devastation that trailer chain dragging can lead to. A single spark can light a flame that will burn through everything in its path. For the sake of our natural environment, consider purchasing a trailer chain holder to keep your safety chains from causing harm.
“Education is a critical part of reducing the number of unwanted, human-caused wildfires we experience every year,” said U.S. Forest Service Deputy Chief Jim Hubbard. “We believe that this new iteration of Smokey Bear’s long-running PSA campaign will demonstrate campfires are not the only way to start a wildfire and that Smokey Bear is counting on them to take action to prevent accidental fire starts.”
