California is dry, dry, dry and that probably means we are in for a  wild wildfire season. Since the beginning of January, there have been  more than 10,000 wildfires across the state.  So, what are we to do?  Hear from Dr. Sasha Berleman, Wildland Fire Scientist. She is director  of Fire Forward at Audubon Canyon Ranch in Stinson Beach. She is a CA State Certified Burn Boss, a Prescribed  Fire Training Exchange (TREX) coach and leader, and a wildland  firefighter with Fire Effects Monitoring, Squad Boss, Crew Boss, Firing  Boss, and Incident Commander qualifications.  Find out what we can do to  reduce the threat and risks of wildfires.
