VISIONING THE FUTURE FOREST SPEAKER SERIES, PART ONE
RESTORATION PROCESSES
Ecological Thinning
Led by FOREST⇌FIRE Co-Creator Michael Llewellyn, we begin to vision a Future Forest that is resilient to catastrophic fire and a warming atmosphere by learning about restoration processes.
Why are our forests currently vulnerable?
What does a resilient forest actually look like?
What processes will help the forest become resilient?
Why are some trees being removed?
Why save some trees but not others?
Do tractors harm forest soils?
How will a resilient forest affect watersheds?
When: Friday, April 29, 2022, 6-7:30pm
Where: Truckee Community Recreation Center, Meeting Room 1
