Hi FAC NM Members,
Wildfire Wednesdays Live is postponed for tonight.
A recent study from the Blue Mountain ecoregion in Northeastern Oregon found that beliefs about future wildfire risks were largely independent of political beliefs and people accurately agreed about the rising frequency of large wildfires and expect this trend to continue. Regardless of the outcome of the 2020 election, let’s continue to work together toward the shared goal of wildfire adapted communities.
This week’s Wildfire Wednesday’s features:
The Fire and Fauna webinar series hosted by the Forest Service
After the Flames Webinar hosted by The National Cohesive Strategy
Thanks,
Gabe
