About this listen
One Yukon community is fighting back against wildfires with an unlikely weapon —trees. The plan seems counterintuitive, using trees to stop a fire, but Aspens are fire-resistant unlike the flammable trees like spruces and pines found around the city. But growing the almost two million trees to make the firebreak isn’t easy. It’s going to take a lot of hard work and a lot of little seeds. But if it works, it could be a game changer.
