The last few fire seasons have a lot of people thinking about smoke. And one issue raised is the possibility of more controlled burns during the non-fire season.
That would likely mean a bit of smoke in the fall, winter, and spring, in the hope of a lot LESS smoke in the summer. Stanford University weighs in with that shows wildfire smoke is worse for children than the smoke from controlled burns.
Dr. Mary Prunicki is the lead author of the study, and our guest.
