Climate change is making wildfire seasons longer and the seasonal workforce used for fire management is understaffed and overstressed. But switching from a temporary/part-time to year-round workforce isn't going to be simple. Great report by @smallthoughts.bsky.socialthebulletin.org/2024/02/clim...

Climate change brings more work, more risk for wildfire workers

Longer fire seasons are upending the systems that federal and state agencies use to manage and contain wildland fires.
