Fire is becoming an increasingly persistent reality in our world, as we watch places dear to our hearts burn. New Mexico has consistently experienced a fire season in June and July, but the fire season of 2022 started in early April and ended in early August. The season was particularly impactful with almost 20 fires raging across almost a million acres. Despite mass damages, youth across the state are taking action to engage with the communities that are affected and to share their experiences.
