Описание: Justin Perry offers a comprehensive understanding of wildfire behavior and management in British Columbia, emphasizing the need for a holistic approach. He discusses the historical suppression of wildfires and its unintended consequences, including increased fuel densities and heightened fire risks. Perry advocates for a balanced strategy that includes both manual treatments and controlled, prescribed burns, drawing on historical First Nations practices. Highlighting the economic and environmental costs of wildfires, he presents the success story of Logan Lake as a model for proactive, community-based wildfire management, underscoring the critical role of collaboration between governments and First Nations in addressing this pressing issue. Justin Perry is an instructor at BCIT in the Forest & Natural Areas Program. His work involves applying traditional and holistic approaches to wildfire management. Justin’s talk will focus on teaching the audience different components of wildfire such as forest ecology, fire behavior and the role of prescribed and cultural burning. Justin will discuss how can we change our relationship with fire and improve how it is managed. Justin Perry is a member of Métis Nation BC and is a lifetime resident of Squamish, the unceded territory of the Squamish Nation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
