But fire coverage and reporting often frame an incident as a disaster that must be contained, redirected or stopped. Californians are often used to understanding the magnitude of a developing disaster by dividing the incident into digestible pieces, like how many acres it’s burned, or how contained it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Venton says that fire’s impact can’t just be measured by acres and area contained. “If the fire is burning in a healthy way, in a place where it's doing ecological good, a fire could be 15% contained. And that doesn't tell you that it's catastrophic necessarily,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, she argues that we should reassess and reprioritize metrics for measuring a fire’s impact. “How many people are being evacuated? Is it threatening towns?” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is it burning in a way that is out of control and ... how many firefighters are involved in the firefight?

One solution does not fit all. The solutions themselves are constantly evolving as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her reporting, she says attention often falls on where mitigation attempts to prevent catastrophic fires have failed. \"Of course, some fires are not going to respond to a firebreak,\" she explained. \"That doesn't mean it's not worth it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She points to an analogy of seatbelts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the 1950s, cars were incredibly dangerous and accidents could result in serious injury or death. But after iterations of new safety strategies, cars are now manufactured to include seatbelts, \"crumple zones,\" and airbags. That shift came about after years of experimenting and testing multiple solutions. The same goes for future wildfire prevention, which could involve variations of mitigation strategies.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>If not all fires are bad, what about wildfire smoke?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>“Wildfire smoke is likely the No. 1 way Californians will feel the effects of fires and really the effects of climate change,” Venton said. “Smoke is really its own natural disaster.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2018 Camp Fire in Butte County nearly obliterated the town of Paradise, killing 106 people and displacing thousands. On top of that devastation, researchers estimated that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1971666/california-wildfires-killed-106-people-two-years-ago-researchers-say-the-smoke-killed-3652\">the smoke of that fire killed an additional 3,600 people\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That’s 30 times more than a heart attack or respiratory illness,\" Venton added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Venton says a major solution to mitigating hazardous levels of wildfire smoke would involve dramatically scaling up the amount of controlled and prescribed fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"A little bit of smoke we should not worry about,\" she explained. \"It's the really heavy, toxic smoke when homes and cars [burn] — and that's the really bad smoke.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Venton urges us to reconsider the notion that blue skies mean ecological balance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bill Tripp, a member of the Karuk Tribe and an advocate for \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/science/1976240/californias-forests-are-at-a-turning-point-why-arent-we-committing-to-good-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a return to prescribed burns\u003c/a>, told Venton that California's skies have always been hazy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The historical records show that the forest looked like a well-pruned orchard with a constant haze of smoke in the air,\" he said. \"That haze, constant haze is part of that natural background.

But fire coverage and reporting often frame an incident as a disaster that must be contained, redirected or stopped. Californians are often used to understanding the magnitude of a developing disaster by dividing the incident into digestible pieces, like how many acres it’s burned, or how contained it is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Venton says that fire’s impact can’t just be measured by acres and area contained. “If the fire is burning in a healthy way, in a place where it's doing ecological good, a fire could be 15% contained. And that doesn't tell you that it's catastrophic necessarily,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead, she argues that we should reassess and reprioritize metrics for measuring a fire’s impact. “How many people are being evacuated? Is it threatening towns?” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Is it burning in a way that is out of control and ... how many firefighters are involved in the firefight?

The Karuk tribe is one of the largest in California, spanning parts of Humboldt and Siskiyou counties along the Klamath River. When the federal government took over managing the forest, it stripped the Karuk people of their relationship with fire, and that has had profound effects. These days, the forest is overgrown, and thick with dry brush. Last fall, the massive Slater Fire decimated cultural sites and homes.

And, while their rights vary, they share an interest in keeping enough water in the river to keep fish healthy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wendy Ferris-George, a Karuk tribal member, gets emotional when she talks about it. “I want the kids to be able to go down to the river and fish and bring home fish for their family,” she says, her voice quavering. “I want the grandmothers and grandfathers not to have to worry about their families starving. That’s what’s happening on the river. Our people are living in poverty, but to native people it’s our life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Endangered Species Act also claims water, to sustain and nurture sucker fish in Upper Klamath Lake, and salmon and steelhead downriver.
