At the European level there is a lot of contact, but I think that the fact of being able to contact Latin American countries is an opportunity that we\u00b4ve never had.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>What my area of work in the project pursues<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out how different management options, such as reducing fuel for a possible fire, and fire prevention actions affect the carbon balance in the system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>What I highlight about the project\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We know our system more or less, but we have no experience with other countries, such as Latin America. They are working a lot on fire issues, they have very important knowledge. The good thing about this project is the experience it will give us, and that both our knowledge and theirs can grow.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>How I think FIRE-ADAPT can contribute to changing social perceptions<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whenever we talk about a topic, all social perceptions improve, as long as we are not bothersome or make slogans, but instead try to accompany with arguments and explain things. In Europe there is already a lot of talk about fires, about how they have to be managed beforehand to reduce their risk.&nbsp; Maybe someone from outside who comes has more microphones so that we can hear them, and in this way we can have more influence on both political issues and society.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#567f3e\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>This is me\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Favourite food:<\/mark><\/strong> casserole rice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Favourite singer or band:<\/mark><\/strong> Bruce Springsteen<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">I admire:<\/mark><\/strong> there are many people I appreciate on a professional level, like Asier Larra\u00f1aga, whom I respect a lot, and many people I like on a personal level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Superpower I\u00b4d like to have:<\/mark><\/strong> make people understand each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#e6613d\" class=\"has-inline-color\">In Spain, I\u2019d take you to:<\/mark> <\/strong>my home, because it is the best I know and where I could explain things that you would surely not find if you were alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Role in FIRE-ADAPT: co-leader of the thematic area &#8220;carbon dynamics&#8221; Organisation: Centre de Ci\u00e8ncia i Tecnologia Forestal de Catalunya\u00a0(CTFC) Country: Spain What motivated me to join FIRE-ADAPT\u00a0\u00a0 FIRE-ADAPT is a good opportunity to exchange knowledge between different groups that use fire or try to use different management options to reduce fire risk.
