Today’s podcast is a republish of a 2018 interview with
Paul F. Hessburg, an expert on wildfires and Senior Research Ecologist at the
Pacific Northwest Research Station.
Five years ago he talked about managing our forests
with controlled burns, thoughtful land development and how homeowners can be
more proactive with their own properties before wildfire season.
Paul discussed how if we take a proactive approach collectively
and allow for more prescribed burning it will make economic sense as well as save
homes and lives.
He also pointed out that smoke from controlled
burns is less toxic and has 2.5 particulates than wildfires.
Fast forward to 2023 and I (host Dawn Van Zant) have
just lived through my own wildfire experience in the Okanogan on the Westside
with the McDougal Creek Fire .
“I am seeing controlled burns after the wild fire
burned out of control and grew from 34 to 12,000 hectares and almost 200
properties burned. The air quality was extremely hazardous (11+) for days and
there will no doubt be long term effects.
“
The province of B.C. has had its worse wildfire
season on record. We are witnessing
fires burn out of control all over the world.
Paul says the question moving forward is really
about - are the fires going to be prescribed or wild?
He asked that question five years ago. We can’t
wait another five years.
We have more control than we think. I encourage everyone to listen to Paul and
learn what you can do individually to protect your home and community and reach
out to your local, provincial or State and Federal leaders to demand a more
proactive approach moving forward.
