Wildfires, climate change, and the future of forest management

Join Carol, Rumneek, and new co-host Jeevan Sangha as they dive deep into the world of wildfires with award-winning UBC researcher, Dr. Lori Daniels (MSc’94). From the phenomenon of “zombie fires” to the fascinating paradox of using fire to suppress fire, Dr. Daniels explains what’s behind BC’s increasingly severe wildfires, how climate change is adding fuel to the fire, and what UBC researchers are doing, in close collaboration with Indigenous communities, to increase the resiliency of BC’s forests.
