Society of American Foresters CFE Credit Expected.

Presenter: George Jensen, Southwest Georgia PBA Coordinator, Tall Timbers

Webinar Description: Southwest Georgia and northwest Florida represent the rekindling of prescribed fire culture in America, cast back on the landscape by Herbert Stoddard and the newly fledged field of wildlife biology. These new managers, researchers, and conservation advocates sought to restore a natural and essential process in an almost wholly anthropogenically changed landscape. These changes impacted how we approach restoring the most common disturbance in our ecosystems, tune in to hear the abridged tale of fire's return to the landscape and how we fuel both the application and culture of prescribed fire in the present day. Following the presentation there will be time for audience Q/A with the speaker.
