Today we are speaking with Erik Leslie, a forestry consultant based out of Nelson, British Columbia.
In our conversation, we unpack Erik’s presentation from the FireSmart BC Conference, where he speaks about the value of community forests and the forest ecosystem. This episode, with an expert who has built his career in forestry, looks at both the risks and realities of fire and covers the value of collaboration and innovation as well as discusses how forest types and FireSmart principles can really make a difference.
