Reducing emissions takes innovation and collaboration. We're encouraged to see efforts like the new composting project at ReGen Monterey, which is designed to help reduce odors and emissions from organic waste processing.

🔥🌲 Beneficial fire at work in Santa Cruz County.

As weather and conditions allow, CAL FIRE is using prescribed fire to improve forest health, restore habitat and reduce vegetation that can fuel larger, more destructive wildfires.

🌧️Rain returns to the Bay Area and Central Coast on Friday through the early part of next week. Wet roadways will cause slick driving conditions and increase the stopping distance. Slow down, keep cruise control off, turn headlights on, and plan extra time for travel. #CAwx

Methane leaks used to be invisible – under-monitored and underestimated – but these super-polluting plumes are now increasingly spotted from space. https://t.co/MXJ0ab8rgR

On Sunday, daylight saving time ends and we'll be turning our clocks back. A good way to remember to test your smoke alarms at least twice a year is to check them when changing your clocks. Taking simple preventative actions can protect you & your family! https://t.co/DWUloqvESY

[CAL FIRE CZU @CALFIRECZU]

🔥 Good Fire at Work!

CAL FIRE CZU is supporting California State Parks during a prescribed burn targeting 15 acres of coastal grassland in the area of Año Nuevo State Park.

Smoke can be seen from Hwy 1 and remember to drive safely.

We are providing hand crews, engines, and equipment support to help safely meet resource management and cultural objectives.

This burn is designed to reduce accumulated dead vegetation, open areas for access to culturally significant plants, support tribal cultural burning practices, and provide valuable firefighter training opportunities.

Prescribed fire is an important tool for maintaining healthy landscapes, reducing hazardous fuels, and supporting cultural stewardship through careful planning and coordination.
