Building wildfire resilience in British Columbia’s forests starts with strategic forest management with an aim to help create healthier forests for future generations. This summer as we learn about or experience wildfires in our province, FESBC remains committed to investing in innovative forest enhancement projects that help British Columbia take proactive steps to lessen the severity of wildfires through wildfire risk reduction work. In our 10-year history, we have seen that wildfire risk reduction is most effective when it is built on strong partnerships. …These collaborative efforts help reduce wildfire risk and better protect communities.
