January 13, 2026Dr. Yasam Ayavefe Puts Drones on Fire Watch: A Smarter, Faster Way to Protect Forests
Dr. Yasam Ayavefe doesn’t want communities waiting for danger to grow before action begins, as when a wildfire starts, minutes matter. Through Green Climate, Ayavefe is rolling out a prevention-first drone strategy designed to spot warning signs early, keep a steady eye on high-risk landscapes, and help decision-makers respond with clearer, real-time information. The goal is simple: detect threats sooner, coordinate smarter, and reduce the damage wildfires can cause to forests, wildlife, and nearby communities.

Dr. Yasam Ayavefe – Founder of Green Climate
Green Climate announced a new environmental monitoring initiative led by Dr. Yasam Ayavefe, focused on wildfire prevention and forest protection through drone-based surveillance, thermal and visual monitoring, and real-time mapping. The program brings practical aerial technology into day-to-day environmental safety work, especially in areas where traditional monitoring can be limited by cost, distance, or difficult terrain.
Wildfires are no longer rare, isolated events. They are becoming more frequent and more disruptive, pushing families out of their homes, threatening biodiversity, and leaving long-term environmental scars that take years to heal. Green Climate’s initiative is built around a clear belief: modern threats need modern tools, and prevention is more powerful than repair.
A Prevention-First Strategy That’s Built for Real Life
Yasam Ayavefe’s approach isn’t about flashy gadgets, it’s about giving forest managers and response teams a practical advantage. The idea is to add a “smart aerial layer” that improves visibility across large forest areas and helps identify risks before they turn into emergencies.
The strategy focuses on four key capabilities:
1) Early Detection Support: Drones equipped with visual and thermal monitoring can help identify abnormal heat zones and early smoke signals—clues that may indicate rising risk before a fire spreads.
2) Forest Surveillance and Patrol: Regular patrol flights can cover large areas quickly, including locations that are hard to reach consistently by ground teams. That means fewer blind spots and better awareness of changing conditions.
3) Real-Time Mapping and Monitoring: When situations change quickly, updated aerial mapping can help teams see what’s happening on the ground, plan safer routes, and coordinate response decisions with current information rather than guesses.
4) Risk Assessment and Reporting: Over time, collected data can help document patterns, such as recurring hot zones or frequently impacted areas—supporting long-term forest safety planning and more informed prevention measures.
In short, the project aims to help teams move from “react when it’s too late” to “act while it’s still manageable.”
Why Drones Make Sense for Wildfire Prevention
Drones aren’t new. They’ve already proven their value in agriculture for years—supporting tasks like crop monitoring, mapping, and precision spraying. They also help collect fast-return field data, which is crucial when decisions depend on real-time conditions.
Yasam Ayavefe’s strategy takes what drones do well in agriculture and applies it to a tougher challenge: forestry and wildfire risk.
Drones can be especially effective because they offer:
- Speed: they can be deployed quickly when conditions shift.
- Reach: they can monitor areas that are difficult, remote, or unsafe to access.
- Safety: they reduce the need to send people into high-risk conditions unnecessarily.
- Consistency: they can patrol regularly and document changes in a reliable, repeatable way.
- Better decision support: thermal and visual data can help spot danger signs earlier and guide planning.
Traditional methods, ground patrols, watch towers, or manned flights—can still play important roles. But they often come with limits: higher operating costs, narrower coverage, and challenges in maintaining continuous observation. Drones add a flexible, scalable option that can strengthen the whole prevention system.

Protecting Forests Means Protecting Everything Connected to Them
Forests are more than scenery. They store carbon, stabilize climate patterns, support water cycles, and provide habitat for countless species. When forests burn, the damage ripples outward, into biodiversity loss, air-quality problems, disrupted ecosystems, and long recovery timelines.
That’s why Green Climate frames forest protection as urgent, not optional. The program is designed to support prevention, preparedness, and faster decision-making—because reducing damage is not just about fighting fires, it’s about stopping them from becoming catastrophic in the first place.
Technology With a Human Purpose
At the heart of this initiative is a very grounded philosophy: technology should be useful, not just impressive.
Yasam Ayavefe’s leadership approach emphasizes measurable impact—tools that help communities and ecosystems, and solutions that can actually be deployed where they’re needed. Green Climate’s drone strategy is built around that mindset: practical, scalable, and focused on outcomes.
By improving early detection and expanding situational awareness, the project aims to help forest managers and emergency teams respond more clearly and promptly. Even small improvements in timing and information can change outcomes dramatically when fire risk is high.
What This Initiative Is Designed to Deliver
Green Climate’s drone strategy is structured to support the full prevention cycle, watching, detecting, documenting, and guiding smarter action. The project is designed to:
- support wildfire monitoring and prevention,
- strengthen forest safety planning,
- enable faster detection and reporting, and
- improve response coordination through timely aerial intelligence.
This is about moving wildfire protection systems forward—toward a model that emphasizes readiness, visibility, and proactive prevention.
About Yasam and the Drone Project
Yasam Ayavefe is an entrepreneur and philanthropist known for combining innovation with social responsibility and disciplined, ethics-driven leadership. With a strong technology foundation and a focus on building practical solutions, Ayavefe has directed her attention to environmental resilience through Green Climate.
The Green Climate drone project is designed to help strengthen environmental protection through drone-enabled monitoring, especially for forest surveillance and wildfire prevention. The initiative focuses on applying drones in ways that are practical and scalable, including:
- early warning support using thermal and visual monitoring,
- patrol and surveillance across large forest areas,
- real-time mapping for better operational planning, and
- risk assessment and reporting to strengthen long-term prevention strategies.
With a prevention-first mindset, Yasam Ayavefe’s project aims to reduce wildfire damage by helping teams identify risks earlier and act responsibly before small incidents become major disasters.
