I'm honored to become a fellow of @calacademy. This important institution has been a beacon of inspiration since my childhood. Together, we can address the challenges of our times, including the #Climatecrisis, #biodiversitydecline, #fire, and many other issues.

Great to see youth-focused evacuation preparedness.
We want kids to be #ReadyForWhatever too! Download some fun coloring pages FREE from #HalterProject for your kids or classrooms. Talk to them about what their pets, livestock and equine need to evacuate quickly and if they need to shelter in place. dropbox.com/scl/fi/2flvtadze…

My invited article Climate Resilience through Ecocultural Stewardship published in a special issue of PNAS doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2310072…. Indigenous stewardship is central to addressing #wildfire #drought #biodiversity and #climate issues.  We all must be active stewards.

As the #MauiFires disaster continues to unfold, one of many things on my mind is the impact of debris flow and toxins into local ecosystems incl. coral reef system feedbacks. Foundational to Kanaka Maoli worldview and the big picture. #climateresilience #ecoculturalresilience.

Today Butte Creek is filled with turbid waters apparently due to a canal failure. The normally crystal clear water has about 1 in (2 cm) visibility as noted in the transparency tube. Sad to see on a spring run Chinook salmon stream. Underscores needs for #30x30 @CalNatResources

I spent this past week in DC working on conservation issues. The US, and much of the world would benefit from honoring and reciprocally stewarding nature with an inter-generational mindset, and recognize #earthdayiseveryday. I find resonance in this 1910 Theodore Roosevelt quote-

"There are no words that can tell the hidden spirit of the wilderness that can reveal its mystery, its melancholy and its charm. The nation behaves well if it treats the natural resources as assets which it must turn over to the next generation.”

It is great to have some aquifer recharge with all of this snow. The heavy weight has crushed brush (including some of my favorite manzanitas), broken branches, and toppled trees. Will need to do some cleanup to remove the newly added fuels. Yet another fire/water relationship.

Nearly one year to date I revisited a willow wattle wall demo my class completed last December (first photo). Live stakes are growing well (second photo), and the wall is recruiting gravel and woody debris. Beaver has also been active in the area (third photo). #workingwithnature

... and that's a wrap. Good work by the groups to build plans and materials to support potential #RxFire in #UpperPark @ChicoParks.
The third cohort of the California State-Certified Burn Boss program 💞🔥 #rxfire @Pyrogeographer

20 years after we first burned this site (right photo) for my grad research, yesterday we returned (left photo) #IndigenousRx to the Mokelumne riparian forest yesterday with family and community leading, and as a training op with local fire depts. #wykeʔ #Miwkoʔ #Miwwyk-(Miwuk)
