Alaska, The Environment, And Fire-Ideas by "Booze"

Yes, his last name is actually "Booze"!

Micah Booze is a Wildland Firefighter who resides in AK... His endeavors have taken him around the United States and he's had the opportunity to make some badass contacts. He is all about the power of networking and "thinking outside the box" to help spread ideas and get things done...

He is also all about being better stewards of the land, and actually practicing what we preach when it comes to helping preserve Mother Nature. One thing that really ticks him off is people who don't bury their poop when they are in the wilderness - Thats why he is launching the A.S.S movement this week!

The A.S.S (Anti Surface S***ing) movement is an effort to raise awareness and ultimately negate the nasty effects of "Surface Sh**ing" while on public lands and in wilderness areas!

Besides that, here is a little more about Micah:

* Alaskan for 5yrs - from beautiful Kenai Peninsula.
* Started in Fire 15yrs ago. I’ve worked at least a season in every Region but 6, and worked for every agency but Fish.
* (Played basketball with Jamie Foxx once)
* I’m a huge proponent of thinking outside the box and when it comes to Fire and ideas to solve our challenging issues in the field.
* HEQB is favorite position to perform in Fire.
* I subscribe to the Will Rogers “Never met anyone I didn’t like.” And the Dale Carnegie “How to Win Friends and Influence People.” approaches on how to treat people and make things happen.
* I’m just unrolling the A.S.S. Movement™️
* I’m looking to get a podcast going hopefully by next off season.

Thank you to anyone who has ever helped a firefighter while they were not working!
Cheers!
