How can we detect and manage wildfires before they get out of control? What can we do as citizens to mitigate the effects of wildfires? ALERTWildfire is a consortium of The University of Nevada, Reno and the University of Oregon providing fire cameras and tools to help firefighters and first responders. From 2016-2019 ALERTWildfire provided critical information for over 1,000 fires! Join us at the Incline Village Library to hear from Dr. Graham Kent on his work spearheading the creation of this program and its impact not only in Tahoe, but throughout the West Coast. Learn about how local communities have started FireWatches using these cameras, as well as cheap and easy things you can do to better fireproof your home and community! This presentation will be held in the meeting room inside the Incline Village Library, located down the hallway on the right side of the lobby. Please register for the event, as there is a limited capacity.
