we had the milley fire that was bearing down on a town in central oregon, sisters, and it came to oregon. it came to an area where the ponderosa pine had been thinned, mowed, and the fire essentially came to a stop. not only because the fuels were reduced but because the thin forest let the firefighters get access to the front line of the fire, far more effectively. we want to understand how the different practices work in different types of forests. do those same practices work as well in the west side wetter forest, douglas fir forest, or does thinning the fire increase the fire risk, affecting the amount of oxygen provided to the fires in the trees? because this sense of using forest management to increase fire resilience, producing jobs, sounds like a win, win, win. we want to make sure we're getting it right. we want to understand the role of mass timber products in sequestration. we can create a great market for our lumber products but also, do something that sounds like it could be very environmentally valuable as well given the difference between the carbon impacts of steel and c

host: that is colette in oregon. guest: first of all, colette, thank you for getting up so early to watch this show. i want to share with you, studies indicate from looking at trees, that there were fires every 17 to 27 years, there was a fire, looking back 10,000 years. so your remarks about what native americans used to do are i think absolutely correct. i would also say that there are many who would share your view, that what we should do is have these planned fires just before we know that there is going to be a huge snowstorm or rainstorm and know for sure it is about to show up, and knowing that those fires would be put out by the following event. i'm hoping it rains before sometime later this fall. host: a recent story in the hill talked about how drones were being used in the fighting of forest fires. i wonder if there is technology to maybe decrease the amount of fires that we see during the years. guest: absolutely there is. the use of drone technology to try to see where those fires are, and then put them

this is in the south of oregon, not far i the south of oregon, not far from the south of oregon, notd it's the biggest fire currently burning in the united states and very, very similar conditions creating its own weather pattern making it much more difficult for the firefighters in that area and as you mentioned a number of them about nine have tested positive for covid—19. the rna isolation away from the main base camp the firefighters used but you can imagine it is simply complicating what's already a logistically very difficult task. this is woodland, very difficult terrain to get through. firefighters are hampered on a number of fronts. the weather has helped a little bit in the last couple of days. the humidity has gone down slightly, the wind has quelled so they have made some inroads but it's likely to still be burning for several weeks, even months until we finally get some rain as late as november or december. some rain as late as november or december-— december. you have lived in the united states _ december. you have lived in the united states many _ december. you have li

rather than the oregon, that we sometimes hear.edge that there are real challenges in portland. you saw the homelessness. there are genuine disorder problems in portland, and we've seen in poles that a lot of people in the portland area are reluctant to go downtown at night so these are genuine challenges that we oregonians have to address and the degree to which fox news in particular has tried to turn portland into a war zone is both preposterous and does a real disservice to this amazing state. just to be a propaganda-ist for a moment. >> we are going to do a story, i spent a few days talking to people in portland about that whole situation. it will air tomorrow morning. thanks to both of you. msnbc daily writer hayes brown and columnist for "the new york times," nicholas kristof. catch me tomorrow morning from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m. eastern and tomorrow we will dive into the climate crisis with secretary pete buttigieg and a group of oregon locals and the true story of the city of portland. you heard the narrative about violence an

back in oregon, the stateoven is explicit that climate change is making things worse.ves and fire seasons that are arriving earlier, coming on faster and lasting for longer. that feeling is shared by the higher levels of the us government. here 5 the special presidential envoy for climate speaking to the bbc 5 today programme. there is now a growing awareness, i am convinced, among people that we have to do something. now, people don't want to be stupid about it. they want to do things that don't, in fact, undo their lives. and ourjob is to make sure we offer this up in a way that works for people, and i think we can and are. despite these assurances there is criticism that climate change still isn't being tackled seriously enough. here's the view of one climate scientist. despite all the promises that we're going to somehow- | solve climate change, we're not| seeing these matched by action. and until we stop dumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, - the warming will continue. marcus kauffman works for the oregon department of forestry and explained how the bootleg

the biggest fire in the country this year is the bootleg fire in oregon. you can see it there on the map. it's about the size of los angeles and has burned more than 340,000 acres of forest. it is so large that it is generating its own weather, like fire clouds that manage to create their own lightning and even fire tornados. the bootleg fire, like so many out west, is fueled by the drought and last month's record heat. you may remember that june was the hottest june on record in nearly 130 years. records were broken across the northwest with multiple days topping 100 degrees. completely unseen before. in oregon and washington, nearly 200 people lost their lives to the heat. across the west, thousands more are now in the path of fast-moving and dangerous wildfires. and it's not just happening in the u.s. siberia, which, you know, if you know one thing about it, you think it's cold. famous for its freezing temperatures. is experiencing its worst fire season in memory. four million acres burned, with villages already evacuating their children because of the

joining me now, oregon's governor kate brown.more than 400,000 acres, making it your state's third largest fire since 1900. what are your biggest concerns right now? >> obviously, i'm very concerned that these very high heat temperatures will continue. i have to say a shout out to the over 2,000 firefighters that are fighting this horrific fire. we really appreciate their dedication and determination. and my heart certainly goes out to all the oregonians that have been impacted by this terrible fire. >> are you getting everything you need from the biden/harris administration? >> the biden-harris administration has stepped up. we always continue to need additional resources and boots on the ground but that's something we will have a conversation about post-wildfire season. it's incredibly important with climate change that we get into these forests and start doing the thinning and harvest and prescriptive burning so that we can create healthier landscapes, landscapes that are more resilient to wildfire. i'm really pleased i was ab

you're seeing that in oregon.he ranks are depleted? >> governor: there is no question that the city of portland, like many cities across the country are hurting right now. the level of gun violence is absolutely unacceptable. we are continuing to move forward on legislation at the state level. every oregonian has the right to be free from gun violence. in terms of our law enforcement community, we have had in this state, and i think across the country, a long, overdue clarion call for justice. what is clear is that our law enforcement system needs a culture change, and that's area i'm working on with my team and new leadership with the agency that trains of oversees the oregon state police -- >> ed: governor, let's have you back to talk about that some time soon. happy independence day day, governor brown of oregon. and we'll be back in a moment. >> ed: in a recently declassified report, u.s. intelligence officials have offered into explanation for dozens of unexplained sightings witnessed by navy pilots since 200

the second piece is that oregon has been able to take action.n the nation to move to our coal to clean and eliminating the reliance on the coal-based energy and i will be signing soon our legislation to move us to 100% clean by 2030. one of the most aggressive standards in the nation. but the reality is quite harsh on the ground. as you mentioned in terms of the wildfires, we have seen twice as many fires and four times as many acreages burned as this time last year, and this is why it is so critically important that we are better prepared for wildfire season. i stood up a wildfire council a couple of years ago and the recommendations from the council were codified into senate bill-762, and it is going to provide the tools to make sure that the communities are more resilient in the face of wildfire and it is going to make sure that we are modernizing the wildfire fighting efforts and ensure that the communities and the landscapes are healthier. for example, we require a higher level of harvest, prescriptive burning and thinning to create a healt

so this portion of southeast oregon and oregon's out back is in exceptional drought.ped since about march, and that -- you know, this is range country. juniper, pine, mixed conifer, mixed forest. they've had months to dry out and cure. wood burns hotter when it's dry. so when the fire gets started in those conditions, there's simply a tremendous amount of energy that gets released from the fire. so the wind is driving the fire, intensifying that fire behavior, and as that column reaches up into the sky, it creates the pyrocumulus cloud that we've seen repeated days on this fire. then that system starts to pull more wind into the fire, which gives more oxygen to the fire. it pushes on the fire, and essentially reinforces that cycle. so it's all about energy release, and that comes from the density of the forests that are in this area and the long-term drought. >> right, the long-term drought a big factor as you mentioned. is this, is this a new normal that your teams on the ground are preparing for? i mean, given, given the havoc that climate change is continuing to wr
