learning as much as i can about wildfires. prescribed burns are a prevention tactic to reduce the buildup of vegetation that could serve as fire fuel.

it takes an avg of 4.7 yrs for a prescribed burn to get through environmental reviews. 

80M acres need urgent treatment — that means now, not in 5 years. maddening!

The backlog complicates effective prevention. Streamlining the review process while maintaining safety standards could significantly improve response times and reduce risks threatening both ecosystems and communities.
