Show Notes
Invasive grasses are threatening communities post-wildfire, as seen in the McKay Creek fire near Lillooet. These grasses outpace native plants, dry out quickly, and act as fuel ladders, enabling flames to race into towns. Local St’át’imc communities emphasize traditional stewardship in fire prevention. Experts advocate for immediate planting of native species and increased funding for invasive plant removal to mitigate future risks.
