The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 6 fires within 5 miles of East Union between 2012 and 2020, burning about 9 acres in total. None started naturally. None was recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

• Fredericksdale
• Carlisle

Museums hold 88 specimens collected within 10 miles of East Union between 1860 and 1974: 70 Animalia, 12 Plantae, 5 Fungi, 1 Unrecorded. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by Adams, W., Adler, K. K., Adler, K. K. & Dennis, D. M. and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.
