167 - Building Canadian Wildfire Culture with Kelsey Winter, Shelagh Pyper and Garnet Mierau

Host Matthew Kristoff discusses the launch of the Wildfire Resilience Consortium of Canada (WRCC) with Shelagh Pyper, Kelsey Winter, and Garnet Mierau. The WRCC aims to move Canada past a wildfire "tipping point" by shifting to a unified, "whole of society" approach. This involves bridging the gap between researchers/Indigenous firekeepers and policymakers to re-embrace fire and build a robust, resilient future.
