Wildfire Misconceptions are Fueling the Problem
Guest: Dr. Chad Hanson
2020 was the worst year on record for wildfires in the state of California as more than four
million acres were burned. Words like ‘apocalyptic’ were used to describe the aftermath. The
loss of lives and property are devastating, but are we making the problem worse with
misconceptions about the role wildfires play in the forest ecosystem? Fire ecologist Dr. Chad
Benson joins us today to talk about some of the reasons that wildfires have increased over past
decades and how our actions have helped to fuel this increase.
