'LET IT BURN' POLICY
The passage and the lecturer discuss the “let it burn'' policy where the government opt to let forest fires subside on their own instead of putting down the fire. Specifically, they assess its effectiveness using 1988 forest fires at Yellowstone national park. While the lecturer discusses the positive effects of the aforementioned policy, the passage argues against it, stating the negative consequences of such unregulated fire hazards.
First of all, the Yellowstone forest fires brought catastrophic damage to the vegetation, by destroying one third of the total park area. The lecturer puts forth a different viewpoint stating the diversity of Yellowstone vegetation since the 1988 disaster. She states how the fires helped in pollinating and grooming unique plants and diversifying the plant life in the national park.
Second of all, the 1988 fires also brought destruction of wildlife and disrupted the food chain present in the park. The lecturer, instead, points out how the fire altered the plant life to cater to a new set of animals like hares feeding on plants and another set of predators preying on hares. Thus, creating a whole new food chain pertaining to the place.
Furthermore, The passage discusses the economic disadvantages created by the forest fires. It decreased the rate of tourism and the chances for local businesses to profit from the tourism at the national park. The lecturer gives a counter argument by stating that these kinds of disasters are rare occurrences. In fact, such forest fires have not occurred in Yellowstone forests after 1988 and it still is a popular tourist spot.
As a concluding remark, the lecturer approves of the policy and believes that forest fires are a natural phenomenon that does not need any interference from the government. The passage differs from this notion by stating the destructive behaviour of forest fires and how they must be regulated to reduce potential destruction.
