I value a world where everyone can breathe freely without the threat of air pollution. In the future I hope that I am able to go outside during the summer and fall without worrying about if the air is going to cause an asthma attack. My recommended intervention may counter my vision but I believe that controlled burns are the best way to control fires around cities. Although it may exacerbate breathing and other health conditions like asthma, I think that if people are given enough notice they can make sure that they remain indoors or limit exposure for the period that the burn is occuring. I would much rather have notice and stay indoors for a few days once a year then unexpectantly wake up to a forest fire that could pollute the air for weeks.
