Governments and business, Gray said, have a habit of focusing on an issue and then bringing in fire as a side-issue that also needs to be addressed. But fire has become the main issue.
“This is probably going to come across a really quite cavalier, but fire is driving the bus. Everything else is going to take a backseat to it … Fire cleans the plate. We have to create conditions so that fire still provides for biodiversity and clean water and is not a threat to our communities and old growth.”
