A frightening fact in the spirit of Halloween. The good news? By expanding cattle grazing and controlled burns, which both help reduce the risk of extreme wildfires, we can make a more #ResilientCalifornia. It’s a science-based solution that protects our environment and reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

We all know that wildfires have become extreme. We can take action now to create a more #ResilientCalifornia by expanding an approach that has been used for centuries: grazing cattle.

"Smoke from California’s wildfires in 2020 — the worst modern wildfire season on record — put twice as much greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere as the state’s total reduction in such emissions from 2003 to 2019, researchers found in a new study." @sfchronicle

We know California can expand cattle grazing and #rxfire burns to help reduce the risk of extreme wildfires. Could #firetech be an answer too?

“Do you want fires escaping and raging and burning for months and producing incredibly large amounts of harmful smoke? Or do you want that meted out in doses and timed as well as we can to be able to deal with the human health effects?” Paul Hessburg, a U.S. Forest Service ecologist tells the @sfchronicle.

Do you know that cattle grazing is a natural way to reduce the severity of wildfires? It's climate action that #California can expand right now to reduce extreme wildfires.
