Our community's consideration of the local impact of climate change, and the development of their own adaptation strategies. This session focuses on how communities are adapting to more frequent and volatile fires caused by rising temperatures and drought conditions, and how the effects of those fires can reach far beyond the forests and into urban areas hundreds of miles away.
