Forest Fire Risk Prevention Derivatives in Northern California
Bobby Fishkin, lead author

In 2018, Sacramento was named the ""the Most Polluted City on Earth"" due to ""smoke from Camp Fire,"" This proposal aims to prevent that from happening again through adopting a systemic approach and collaborating with stakeholders to actively prevent future such events. The insurance industry, along with institutional chief risk officers, have begun to recognize the importance of moving from ""loss compensation to loss prevention.""

CrowdDoing and Project Heather propose launching a prevention derivative with two new stakeholders: (a) contingent payers who pay in proportion to the reduction in risk, and (b) impact investors who finance social innovations in which their return is similarly proportional to the reduction in risk. It will build on existing precedents for contingent contracts involving social- innovation-based risk prevention.

Forest Fire Prevention Derivatives, CrowdDoing, Volunteer Actuary
A spectrum of forest fire risk prevention approaches are available: from creative new social innovations to well-established interventions.The forest fire risk prevention derivative would first survey existing forest fire prevention interventions in Greater Sacramento with an eye towards which ones might be suitable to support and expand. It would then review global social innovations that might be relevant to Northern California to determine which to replicate. Entities involved in risk management and risk securitisation, from insurers to reinsurers to retrocessionaires, ought to welcome the chance to share liability proportionally through a commons of prevention innovations. The prevention derivative can expand as more institutions and individuals join as contingent payers and impact investors in order prevent a larger portion of collective risk. Payments by private and public institutions to support prevention derivatives can be in-kind, through services, and/or financial.

*Our location along the Lower Salt River is subject to change due to weather or river water levels. We will let everyone know if anything needs to change.

Once the safety briefing and group photo are done, volunteers can spread out along the river and all of the different trails. Volunteers may also head over other Recreation Areas along the river to explore and pick up trash. We will have a dedicated dumpster at Sheeps Crossing so that we can get an accurate weight the trash volunteers remove on Green Friday.

Everyone will meet back at the sign-in area at noon for a free raffle. Everyone will receive a free raffle ticket at sign-in, must be present to win. We have awesome prizes from REI & Parks Project, in addition to NR merch.

Wear long pants, thick-sole & closed toe sturdy shoes for safety (no flipflops/sandals). Wear a hat, sunglasses for eye protection, and sunscreen. It will likely be chilly in the morning and warming up as you start to move around and it heats up. Wearing layers you can remove is helpful.

*If you have water shoes, waders, or an old pair of shoes, this would be a great time to use them. If you prefer to stay on dry land, that's totally fine.

What to bring: please bring a reusable water bottle or hydration backpack. We will have water coolers full of ice water for you to refill your bottle or pack. We will provide gloves, bags, & trash grabbers.

*If you have any allergies that you carry an epi-pen and antihistamines for, please do not forget to bring them with you. This is a wilderness area along the Lower Salt River so it’s best to prepare for anything.

Join Natural Restorations, Four Peaks Brewing Co., the National Forest Foundation, & the US Forest Service Tonto National Forest - Mesa Ranger District for the annual Four Peaks Cleanup & Save Our Saguaros Replanting Event

In 2020, the Bush Fire consumed over 193,000 acres, killing an estimated 80,000 saguaro cacti in the Tonto National Forest. Saguaros play a similar role in the Sonoran desert as trees do in our forests, providing food and homes for wildlife. A portion of this region includes over 85 acres of habitat surrounding the base of the Four Peaks Mountains. That's why Four Peaks Brewing Co., the National Forest Foundation, Natural Restorations, and the US Forest Service Tonto National Forest - Mesa Ranger District have teamed up again to support and plant hundreds of saguaros and other native cacti and plants to restore life on the Tonto.

13th annual Four Peaks Cleanup: We need volunteers to help with the annual Four Peaks Cleanup. Volunteers can explore the area while picking up trash from the trails, main staging area, and cacti replanting area.

Save Our Saguaros 2022: We also need volunteers to help with the annual Save Our Saguaros replanting event. Volunteers will help plant saguaros and other native desert plants along with indigenous grasses that help soil and erosion in the 2020 Bush Fire burn scar at Four Peaks. Our goal is to replant smart to help reduce the chance of wildfires in the future.

Sign-in: 7:00-8 a.m. | Safety Briefing: 8:00 a.m. | Cleanup & Replanting starts: after safety briefing | Lunch & Free Raffle: 12:00p.m.

Take part to the organization of TRIESTECLASSICA music festival for citizens, which in 2023 will take on the title "Horizons"!
“Horizon” indicates, in its most common and direct meaning, the apparent line along which, in an open and flat place, the sky seems to touch the earth or the sea. The Horizons Festival, therefore, first of all wants to represent an instrument of cohesion, connection and union between different cultures, styles, eras and habits of life. Specifically, this objective will find space under different guidelines in the artistic programming of the 2023 Festival and precisely: - Historical horizon, understood as the discovery of Music and Culture of all historical eras, to probe the roots that have led up to the times current; - Stylistic horizon, that is the mixture of different artistic disciplines: it has always been our belief, in fact, that the union of music with other disciplines, especially figurative, allows a more immediate approach with the viewer, who sees himself facilitated in understanding and therefore in the enjoyment of listening to music; - Geographic horizon, that is, the discovery of world music and cultures, with the awareness that the history of these societies is independent and irreducible to the process that led from Greek-Roman antiquity to modern Europe; - Environmental horizon, that is the attempt, through Art and Music, to raise awareness and stimulate interest in the environmental problems that afflict our planet. "Horizon", in fact, in a more figurative meaning, also indicates the particular field in which one can range with the mind, the mentality, the way of thinking: the Festival aims to provide the greatest number of cultural ideas and stimuli so that each spectator can “travel with the mind”.
