Why wildfires have gotten worse -- and what we can do about it | Paul He...

https://youtu.be/O6Vayv9FCLM    [14:11 minutes]

TED
Published on Nov 29, 2017
Megafires, individual fires that burn more than 100,000 acres, are on the rise in the western United States -- the direct result of unintentional yet massive changes we've brought to the forests through a century of misguided management. What steps can we take to avoid further destruction? Forest ecologist Paul Hessburg confronts some tough truths about wildfires and details how we can help restore the natural balance of the landscape. Check out more TED Talks: http://www.ted.com

Bad Day HQ
Published on Mar 20, 2017
On August 16, 2003, at about 4 a.m., a wildfire was started by a lightning strike near Rattlesnake Island in Okanagan Mountain Provincial Park in British Columbia, Canada. The wildfire was fuelled by a constant wind and one of the driest summers in the past decade.
Within a few days it had grown into a true firestorm. Having a bad
day? I bet we have worse ones for you. Sound off in the comments on
