Aux Territoires du Nord-Ouest (TNO), les feux de forêt d’origine naturelle sont courants et on leur doit une ressource naturelle précieuse : les morilles. Ces champignons peuvent pousser dans les zones brûlées et offrent aux Ténois et à leurs collectivités une possibilité de revenu saisonnier. On peut s’attendre à une augmentation des revenus durables provenant de la récolte des morilles dans les années à venir, étant donné que les feux de forêt devraient être plus fréquents que la normale en raison du changement climatique.
Forest fires are naturally-occurring events in the Northwest Territories (NWT) that produce a valuable renewable resource: morel mushrooms. These mushrooms may flourish in burned areas after a forest fire and present NWT residents and communities with an opportunity to generate a seasonal income. The prospect of sustainable earnings from the morel mushroom harvest will likely increase in coming years as more than the usual number of forest fires are expected to occur due to climate change.
