VISIONING THE FUTURE FOREST
The FOREST⇌FIRE Project invites the people of the Truckee Tahoe region into the captivating story of the Sierra Nevada Forest’s 13,000-year relationship with fire and the surprising and essential role humans play within it, affecting forest, watershed, and our own well-being, from the past into the future.
It aims to inspire a broad community conversation about fire and catastrophic fire in the Sierra Nevada Forest, and what can be done to help the Forest, the watersheds and ourselves become resilient into the future.
