The momentum informed three bills that were signed into law: SB 901, which includes $200 million per year for the next five years to fund forest health and fire prevention work; SB 1260, which focuses primarily on prescribed fire; and AB 2091, which mandates the development of new insurance options for prescribed fire.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another network of UC ANR scientists helped conduct <a href=\"https:\/\/ucanr.edu\/blogs\/blogcore\/postdetail.cfm?postnum=28061\">California\u2019s Fourth Climate Assessment<\/a>.
