The effects of climate change are causing the threat of extreme wildfires to grow across the US, even in areas not considered to be at risk 20 years ago. Designing fire-resistant properties that are prepared and protected year-round is an essential factor in building wildfire-resilient communities. This course reviews the health and environmental harms of wildfires and their role in the growing insurance crisis and then addresses how an eco-friendly fire inhibitor can be part of a multilayered defense strategy. Also discussed are this nontoxic product’s fire and safety testing and certifications and how it can be deployed in a variety of methods to serve as a proactive defense against embers, the leading cause of structure ignitions in wildfire events.

Name: Steve Conboy
Title: Founder Chief Technoligist, Mighty Fire Breaker
Background:
Steve Conboy is the founder and president of Mighty Fire Breaker, LLC, and the inventor of MFB-31-Citrotech, a patented, nontoxic fire inhibitor. In April 2022, he coordinated the grand opening of his company’s first store to serve the public, the Wildfire Depot. At that event, he conducted tests in the presence of Rohnert Park fire officials that proved the efficacy of Citrotech.
Steve began his career as a union carpenter with Local 940 in Brooklyn, and he transferred to California in 1975 where he has lived ever since. Steve left the building trade in 1998 to become an engineering technical representative for the largest engineered wood company in the world. In 2005, he began his career in fire chemistry, and he invented the most cost-effective fire protection program for 5-story, high-density, wood-framed buildings to defend them from arson activity. By the time he sold that patent and program, he had defended over 20 million square feet of living space throughout the US.
Ever since California’s 2017 Tubbs fire, Steve’s focus has been on developing proactive solutions to save homes from wildfire and defending our environment with safer, nontoxic chemistry. In this regard, Steve has developed 18 products, most of which are patented and some of which are patent pending.
In 2022, Steve worked with the EPA on their Safer Choice Program, and MFB-31-Citrotech received the EPA’s Safer Choice designation. That same year, Steve also worked with UL, which granted MFB-31-Citrotech GREENGUARD Gold Certification and inclusion in the Product Lens™ program. Steve has also been working with the USDA for aerial delivery of MFB-31-Citrotech to fight wildfires.
In October 2023, the EPA chose Mighty Fire Breaker as a Safer Choice Product Partner of the Year Award Winner. This EPA link gives further information. Steve is also active with carbon engineers in the mass timber movement. He is working to create a carbon trade for having completed nature’s carbon sequestration, in that wood that has been treated to be fire resistant will not release its CO2 back into the environment.
Steve authored the book Nature Is Screaming! Are We Ready to Listen? He is now writing a children’s book about two characters, Big Wood and Little Wood, who are having a conversation about nature and science.
