Description
Wildfires are a part of nature, serving as agents of change and revitalization that enable healthy forests, ecosystems, and biodiversity. Although we need wildfires, climate change is dramatically increasing their frequency and severity, which can have tragic impacts to community health and safety, infrastructure, forest health and wildlife habitat. In response to this threat of high intensity wildfires, the Climate Action Reserve is excited to be developing the Avoided Wildfire Emissions (AWE) Forecast Methodology through the Climate Forward program, which describes fuel treatment activities that can be implemented to mitigate wildfire behavior and enhance fire resiliency. Join Forestry Manager Marissa Spence in this next episode of Carbon Connection as she breaks down AWE and shares more on the anticipated climate benefits that can be generated by the carbon market and fuel treatment activities through our new methodology expected to be released this Fall.
