破纪录的火灾季节在世界范围内越来越普遍，尽管多年来一直在投资支持社会生态对野火的复原力，但大型野火正在对人和财产产生巨大影响。这引发了对土地管理和政策改革的新呼吁，因为目前的土地和火灾管理方法无法有效应对气候和发展模式的迅速变化，而气候和发展模式有力地控制了火灾行为，并继续加剧人类社区面临的风险和危害。在快速变化的易受火灾影响的景观中促进社会生态复原力需要采用多种复原力观点，超越“基本复原力”（或反弹到类似状态），包括“适应性复原力”和“变革性复原力”，这需要对社会生态系统进行实质性和明确的改变。澄清这些不同的观点并确定它们在哪里最有效，有助于优先考虑在日益易燃的世界中更好地与野火共存的努力。
Record-breaking fire seasons are becoming increasingly common worldwide, and large wildfires are having extraordinary impacts on people and property, despite years of investments to support social-ecological resilience to wildfires. This has prompted new calls for land management and policy reforms as current land and fire management approaches have been unable to effectively respond to the rapid changes in climate and development patterns that strongly control fire behaviour and continue to exacerbate the risks and hazards to human communities. Promoting social-ecological resilience in rapidly changing, fire-susceptible landscapes requires adoption of multiple perspectives of resilience, extending beyond 'basic resilience' (or bouncing back to a similar state) to include 'adaptive resilience' and 'transformative resilience', which require substantial and explicit changes to social-ecological systems. Clarifying these different perspectives and identifying where they will be most effective helps prioritize efforts to better coexist with wildfire in an increasingly flammable world.
