The Conundrum of Wildland Fire: Balancing Ecological Benefits and Community Safety
Steve Markason, Founder/Principal of the Teton Wildfire Mitigation Team, shares insights on balancing the ecological benefits of wildfires with the risks they pose when out of control. He also touches on historical data, like the increase in wildfires since 1983 and how peak fire seasons are shifting earlier due to climate change. We aim to help listeners understand strategies for living with wildland fires while designing communities that can withstand them. Steve brings extensive experience from his work at Bridger Teton National Forest and now educates nationwide on wildfire best practices.
