Smoke…and another fire! What should we do? \nCharisse Sydoriak will lead an informational discussion on “What is it like to live in a fire-\nadapted community (FAC)?” To gain a deeper appreciation of how we can live with\nwildfire\, she will introduce the basics of wildfire dynamics\, define key terms\, and identify\ncomponents of a FAC. We’ll then delve into 5 of 10 FAC components: mitigating fire\npotential\, engaging the community\, reducing vulnerabilities at home\, response strategies\,\nand personal safety. Charisse looks forward to hearing the group’s thoughts and ideas on\nhow to overcome challenges and leverage opportunities so that Southern Oregon can\nbecome a truly fire-adapted community. \nCharisse Sydoriak was a pioneer in monitoring fire effects and using fire as a\nmanagement tool\, starting in Yosemite National Park in 1980. She’s\nmanaged hundreds of prescribed natural fires\, trained burn bosses\, served on\nseveral incident management teams\, and was the first female regional fire\nmanagement officer in the National Park Service. \nDuring her career\, she was chief of resources management and research at\nLava Beds and Bandelier National Monuments\, and at Sequoia and Kings Canyon National\nParks. For 7 years she facilitated science integration in the BLM. Charisse retired in\nDecember 2015 after 35 years of federal service. \nIn April 2019\, Charisse joined the Ashland Wildfire Safety Commission. After the 2020\nAlmeda Fire she co-founded the Ashland Volunteer Wildfire Risk Assessment Program to\neducate residents and motivate wildfire risk reduction in Ashland. She is also a member of\nthe Medford Wildfire Mitigation Steering Committee. Charisse’s views at this event are\nher own and do not represent the cities of Ashland or Medford\, Oregon.

SUMMARY:SOCAN: Solar Projects You Can Plug-in To
DESCRIPTION:Southern Oregon Climate Action Now (SOCAN) and the Ashland Climate Action Project invite you to a presentation by local solar energy enthusiasts Tuesday\, October 26 from 6-7 p.m. Presenters include Jim Hartman from Ashland Solar Cooperative and Ray Sanchez-Pascador\, from Solarize Rogue. \nAccording to SOCAN\, “One of the most effective actions individuals can take to address the climate crisis is to electrify their lives as much as possible. While this is very effective\, even if our electricity is produced in a fossil fuel-powered generation facility\, it is even more effective if our electricity is generated by solar panels\, wind turbines or other fossil-free means. Unfortunately\, not everyone owns their own home\, or has a South-facing roof on which to install the panels.” \n“Ray Sanchez-Pescador with Solarize Rogue will discuss successful efforts to provide community members the opportunity to own solar panels that are not installed on their roof but generate electricity that replaces what they take from the grid that might have otherwise been generated in a fossil fuel-powered generation plant. Jim Hartmann from the ‘Ashland Solar Cooperative’ will then discuss how this group is collaborating with Solarize Rogue and planning to bring the option of community solar projects to the Ashland community.” \nThe program will be held via ZOOM and is open to the public. There is no charge for joining the meeting\, but participants must register. \nClick Here to Register  \n  \n
