> I'm shocked this isn't being done already. But what on earth is the reasoning in this article? There are plenty of great reasons to do controlled burns, but for some reason the article says controlled burns are good because: >> purposeful burns have been used by Indigenous people to keep forests and wildland healthy for millenia. Don't be shocked. Part of the reason they're couching it this way is to avoid acknowldeging yet another Sacramento Policy Failure "In California, two different approvals are needed for a burn — an air permit and a smoke management plan from the California Air Resources Board or a regional air-pollution district. In some cases, Cal Fire has to sign off, too." https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/fires/article249345695.html https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/fires/article24934569...
