Let It Burn policy
The "Let It Burn" policy refers to a wildfire management strategy that allows certain fires to burn naturally in designated areas, rather than extinguishing them immediately. This approach is based on the understanding that some wildfires can benefit ecosystems by removing dead vegetation, promoting new growth, and maintaining the health of the forest. It helps restore habitats and can reduce the risk of larger, uncontrolled fires in the future. By letting certain fires burn, resource management agencies can achieve ecological balance while still protecting human communities and resources.
