Explore how emerging technologies, climate science and community-based solutions are transforming the way we understand, respond to and live with wildfires.
Wildfires are no longer distant events unfolding deep in remote forests. As fires grow more frequent and intense, their impacts are increasingly felt in our cities, communities and the air we breathe. How do wildfires reshape the future of our forests, cities and climate?
Join University of Toronto experts for an engaging discussion on the science, technology and human realities of wildfires. Explore how robotics and aerial monitoring are changing the way fires are tracked, why wildfire smoke poses growing challenges for urban centres and how communities can adapt in a world where fire is both a natural part of the landscape and an escalating public concern.
From public health and environmental justice to urban planning and climate resilience, discover how the decisions we make today will shape our ability to live with fire tomorrow.
