Ethnographic research can improve understanding of how people in these communities, often rural, heavily forested, and economically impoverished Southern towns, view and experience bioenergy initiatives. It can also elucidate various, often competing, worldviews and ways of discussing an interconnected web of social issues related to bioenergy development. Further, ethnography in these local communities sheds light on ways that some actors strategically deploy certain narratives to promote their own objectives. Through multi-sited fieldwork in Georgia and Mississippi and event ethnography at regional conferences and national webinars, we have found that four main issues are intertwined on a local level in communities where bioenergy facilities are located: energy, landscape, climate, and race. These rural, forested communities grappling with deep racial divides, socioeconomic vulnerabilities, and skepticism about climate change will continue to be sought as sites for wood-based bioenergy, making understanding the cultural context a paramount concern.","PeriodicalId":87338,"journal":{"name":"Practicing anthropology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80501510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its focus is on the little-known efforts of fire mitigation by Latinx migrant workers. In this article, I discuss how the COVID-19 pandemic made me shift research focus from seeking to understand how workers’ ecological knowledge might shape fire mitigation policy to a prioritization of workers’ precarious “essential labor” on the “front” front lines of fire prevention. I discuss how the temporalities of the pandemic, wildfire, and research played out across the labor terrain of the Southern California wildfire mitigation efforts and within my own applied research. Specifically, I discuss how COVID-19 university research “ramped down,” and stay-at-home orders prevented me from being embedded with workers in the county’s canyons, as I had planned, and how I had to learn to adjust my funded research. The outcome required doing applied research by letting go of continuity, by dwelling in disjointed COVID-19 temporalities that settled over the county’s flammable chaparral where essential labor serves as an extension of a failing settler colonial fire management practice that requires worker vulnerability to inoculate the lives of those living in the county’s wildfire risk regions.","PeriodicalId":87338,"journal":{"name":"Practicing anthropology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81387671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
