In the forest, winter firelighting saves summer firefighting

  • 24.12.20

Video News – Forest fires are a growing modern problem around the world – ancient wisdom is helping us tackle this effect of global warming

Read the full story here!

Forest fires are becoming a bigger and bigger problem in places like California and Australia. This is due to global warming. But ancient wisdom held by the people of the forests offers a solution for fighting fire... with fire.

Meet Elizabeth. When she was 4, she learned how to use "fire medicine" from her grandfather. He in his turn learned it from his Native American ancestors. See how it works in this video news story.

Listen to the podcast with Alastair & Clarisse!

Problem?

Global warming makes hotter, drier summers in many places, meaning bigger forest fires that destroy homes, harm wildlife and fill cities with smoke.

Solution!

Fight fire with fire! People whose ancestors lived in the forests show how ancient ways of burning small areas in winter help Nature and limit the size of summer fires.
