“Mae tanau glaswellt bwriadol yn peryglu bywydau. Os yw’r Gwasanaeth Tân ac Achub yn brysur yn diffodd tân bwriadol, gall hynny arwain at oedi cyn ymateb i argyfwng go-iawn sy’n peryglu bywyd fel tân mewn tŷ neu ddamwain ffordd. Mae tanau glaswellt bwriadol hefyd yn niweidio cefn gwlad a’n hamgylchedd, peryglu bywyd gwyllt a da byw, ac yn costio miliynau o bunnoedd i economi Cymru bob blwyddyn.
“Deliberate grass fires endanger lives. If the Fire and Rescue Service are tied up tackling a deliberately set grass fire it can result in a delayed response to a life-threatening emergency, such as a house fire or road traffic collision. Deliberately set grass fires also severely damage our countryside and our environment, pose a threat to wildlife and livestock, and costs the Welsh economy millions of pounds each year.
