Less state pact and more rural development and market
Less state pact and more rural development and market
El Independiente
Fecha: 24 Agosto 2025
Authors: Luis Quiroga, Toni Timoner
The article defends that fighting wildfires is not about more solemn pacts, but about caring for the countryside and bringing life back to rural areas. It proposes less bureaucracy to clean forests, more prevention with grazing, controlled burns, and agroforestry mosaics, and stable crews working year-round. It also suggests taking advantage of biomass and timber as a rural economic engine, with public procurement and heat networks that create jobs. Natura 2000, well managed, can be an ally. In short, investing in prevention is more effective and cheaper than spending later on helicopters and firefighting.
