Wildfires & Water - Interview with Dr Kevin Bladon
In this extended episode on Wildfires & Water, we will be discussing the effects that wildfires can have on our freshwater systems. We'll discuss the benefits, the negatives and how we should be reframing our conversation about wildfires on our landscapes. You'll hear the complete interview with Dr. Kevin Bladon from Oregon State University who studies how freshwater systems react after wildfires.
