wildfire resilience

Wildfire resilience refers to the ability of a community, ecosystem, or area to withstand and recover from wildfires. This involves proactive measures such as creating defensible spaces around homes, using fire-resistant materials in construction, and managing vegetation to reduce fuel for fires. It also includes preparedness through community planning, education, and emergency services. After a wildfire, resilience involves efficient recovery efforts and restoring landscapes, ensuring that both people and nature can bounce back more effectively. The goal is to minimize damage and enhance safety and stability in the face of future wildfires.
