The Science Behind Forest Restoration in the Sierra Nevada - Livestream

Fire suppression and past logging have increased fire hazards in the forests of the Sierra Nevada. Climate change makes this situation worse but is not the dominant factor.

There is still hope in reducing the negative aspects of wildfires in this region.
