Abstract

How can the South better manage its forests for wildfire prevention and mitigation during a time of climate change? This Article introduces some of the legal and political issues that make doing so a particular challenge for the southeastern United States—where 86% of the forests are privately owned—and will suggest some potential avenues to improve southern wildfire management.
