64. The Environmental Impact of Wildfires with Robin Lee Carlson

In episode 64 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we are talking about wildfires. I have been wanting to do more ecology based content on the show because I think it balances out a lot of the production content really well. Plus, it’s super fun and interesting to learn about!

As we will discuss in the interview, wildfires are a somewhat misunderstood natural occurrence and is one that is often vilified in the media. To explain how and why wildfires exist in nature along with some of her personal experiences and observations, I had the pleasure of interviewing Robin Lee Carlson.

Robin is an author and natural science illustrator. After studying evolutionary biology at UC Santa Cruz and the University of Chicago, she spent many years working on stream habitat restoration projects in California. She is most interested in how landscapes and ecological communities change over time, and her artwork is grounded in observing and documenting the world around her as it unfolds. Her first book, The Cold Canyon Fire Journals, was just published this year and her work has also appeared in The Common and Arnoldia.
