With spring upon us, many regional communities’ thoughts are turning to preparation for bushfire season. With climate change causing an increase in the frequency and severity of bushfires in Australia, there is a pressing need to reduce emissions and find new ways to make communities resilient.

In this episode Andrew Beer speaks with Sean Appoo from the Aboriginal Carbon Foundation, an organisation who use traditional burning methods to reduce the impact of bushfires and the emissions they cause. Working with traditional owners and organisations like the Aboriginal Carbon Foundation, landowners can not only make their farms more resilient to fire, but also earn carbon credits that they can invest back into their business.
