On this episode of Fresnolandia, hosts Danielle and Jordan speak with Fresnoland's environmental reporter Gregory Weaver about his new story on the Garnet Fire, which scorched over 65,000 acres in the Sierra National Forest. They uncover how bureaucratic delays and inaction by the U.S. Forest Service may have doomed one of California’s most important old-growth research areas—the Teakettle Experimental Forest—despite years of preparation, funding, and scientific consensus. The conversation traces the tangled history of prescribed burns, the decline of the Forest Service’s capacity, and California’s environmental future.
