- Abstract:
  The author discusses forest fires in California and the U.S. West Coast and argues that government regulation there and in other states should emphasize prescribed burns over fire suppression policies. According to the author, prescribed burns would help clear vegetation but would take great reform efforts and a significant amount of funding.
