Today's wildfires are shaped by many factors: a changing climate, our historical decisions about how to manage fire, where and how we build, and how we conceptualize the 'wildfire problem.' What's clear, though, is that wildfires continue to impact communities with devastating results, including here in Canada with Jasper National Park this summer. In this seminar, we'll discuss the causes of wildfire, its impact on health in particular, and some of the solutions we'll need to consider for both planetary and personal health in our fiery future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
