Catch this presentation at Museum of the Rockies to learn about wildfire ecology and the role of wildfire in the ecosystem. Ecologically speaking, large high-severity blazes are ecological gifts that create essential habitats for many plants and animals. Common practices like thinning and prescribed burning are largely ineffective at slowing or halting the largest, extreme weather-driven blazes and have many negative ecological impacts. Wuerthner will cover how homeowners can learn to live with fire.
