Among several bad state constitutional amendments being floated in the North Carolina state legislature this year, this one might be the most dangerous.

First up: Coalitions & Collaboratives partnered with Skeena Watershed to field-test a new approach to hazardous fuels: rapid, targeted degradation of waste biomass using fungi, moving that material out of the fuel/fire cycle and into the soil cycle, helping keep carbon stored rather than released.
