Event Description
As we transition out of Canada’s worst wildfire season, join them at the Canmore Public Library on Monday, October 16, at 7:00 pm for a presentation and discussion with Cliff White...Firesmarting the Bow Valley: How do we ensure that our community and surrounding wildlands are firesmarted?
Attendees will learn the answers to some very important questions:
How do we “FIRESMART” our homes, our community, and surrounding parks and wildlands?
Is what we’ve already done good enough – or do we need to do more?
What lessons can First Nations teach us when it comes to Firesmarting?
Can we combine Firesmarting with habitat enhancement? If so, what does it look like?
What’s a long-term eco-cultural biome?
What’s a modern industrial anthrome?
How did wildland fires burn in biomes, and how do they burn in modern anthromes?
We’ll also have a question period and discussion.
Could Canmore become a model “Regional Fire-Smart Community” where our individual actions and local governance allow some form of the long-evolved “eco-cultural biome” fire regime to co-exist with the modern “urban anthrome” landscape?
Join us on October 16 to discuss! You can register for this free workshop here: https://ow.ly/6JhG50PTFnC
