Should We Fight Wildfires with... More Fire?
Season 5
Episode 4
Living with catastrophic wildfires has become an unfortunate reality for much of the world. And climate change has made the fire season longer and more intense. Deliberately setting “good fires,” could help prevent future fires by clearing away unwanted brush and debris. But organizing controlled burns is a lot of work, and it has its risks, too.
