Fuel for Future: Prescribed burns, soil dynamics and ecological health. Skidmore College senior Lucy Beckman and her team want public input on opinions on prescribed burns for ecological health. Learn more and take the survey at buff.ly/4JoUua7 #PrescribedBurning #PrescribedFire #FireScience
Coming soon! My new book focused on observing and journaling about good fire (prescribed burns). New content that’s not in my Pyrosketchology book and much smaller so easier to carry into the field.

Our study in an Aleppo pine (𝘗𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴) plantation (Montgrí, NE Spain) shows #PrescribedFire is a sustainable tool!
After 2 years, soil properties (pH, EC, water repellency) showed no significant changes
Soil resilience is key for Mediterranean forest management!

LEGISLATIVE ACTION ALERT www.nffe.org TELL CONGRESS COSPONSOR H.R. 1522 The Federal Retirement Fairness Act Federal employees that began their career as seasonal or temporary employees are not able to contribute the requisite number of years to draw full retirement benefits after 30 years of service. These dedicated workers then face a choice: leave the federal service without full retirement benefits or work longer than their peers to obtain their full retirement benefits. The Federal Retirement Fairness Act would allow former seasonal and temporary federal employees to "buy-back" retirement contributions in order to retire after 30 years of service. There is a qr code in the lower right corner ACT NOW! Tell Congress to cosponsor the bipartisan Federal Retirement Fairness Act. National Federation of Federal Employees Affiliated with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL-CIO
LEGISLATIVE ACTION ALERT www.nffe.org TELL CONGRESS COSPONSOR H.R. 6015 / S. 3174 The VA CBA Act of 2025 The Veterans Affairs Collective Bargaining Agreement Act of 2025 On March 27, President Trump issued an Executive Order, Exclusions from Federal Labor-Management Relations Programs, which aims to gut federal employee collective bargaining rights. Hundreds of thousands of federal workers at the Department of Veterans Affairs have lost their constitutionally protected freedom to form and join a union since this executive order was implemented. The VA CBA Act of 2025 (H.R. 6015/S. 3774) would reverse the executive order as it applies to the VA and restore collective bargaining rights for these critical workers. There is a qr code in the lower right corner. ACT NOW! Tell Congress to cosponsor the VA CBA Act of 2025. National Federation of Federal Employees Affiliated with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL-CIO
NFFE LEGISLATIVE ACTION ALERT www.nffeorg TELL CONGRESS COSPONSOR H.R. 5091 The Wildland Firefighter Hazard Pay Correction Act Currently, federal wildland firefighters perform dangerous, life-threatening duties while on the front lines of wildfires, yet they do not receive hazard pay for this work. The Wildland Firefighter Hazard Pay Correction Act (H.R. 5097) provides hazard pay to federal wildland firefighters while engaged in prescribed fire operations, as well as smokejumpers performing training and proficiency jumps from airplanes. Qr code to lower right. ACT NOW! Help protect those brave individuals who put their lives on the line to protect our families, homes, and national parks. Tell Congress to cosponsor the Wildland Firefighter Hazard Pay Correction Act. National Federation of Federal Employees Affiliated with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, AFL-CIO
Three action alerts today!
1) Do this on a break or after hours.
2) Share it with friends and family and encourage them to help fix the laws that need fixing.
One fixes #hazardpay on #prescribedFire, one our ability to buy back seasonal time, the last helps protect union rights for VA employees.
