CLEAN : Goats help prevent wildfires in California

The video discusses the use of grazing as a method to manage invasive species and reduce fire risk. It compares the efficiency of grazing to traditional firefighting methods, highlighting the environmental benefits such as natural fertilization and reduced fossil fuel use. The goal is to eliminate the fuel ladder to protect structures from potential fires.

What are the goats primarily feeding on in the area?

• Tree leaves

• Invasive species like Castor beans

• Grass

• Fruits

How do goats help in reducing fire risk?

• By creating firebreaks

• By eating invasive species and reducing fire load

• By providing natural fertilization

• By scaring away predators

Why is it beneficial to use goats instead of traditional methods like weed whackers?

• Goats require less supervision

• Goats can work in any weather

• Goats are more cost-effective and environmentally friendly

• Goats are faster

What is a 'fuel ladder' in the context of fire prevention?

• A type of invasive plant

• A progression of vegetation that can carry fire from the ground to the canopy

• A method to climb trees

• A tool used by firefighters

What is the main goal of removing the 'fuel ladder'?

• To increase biodiversity

• To improve soil quality

• To protect structures from fire

• To create more grazing land
