MO's Defensible Space | Reducing Wildfire Risk: A Practitioner's Perspective | February 23rd, 2026 In this forum, MO's Defensible Space covers the evolving science around wildfire disasters and the reality of applying that science to meaningfully reduce risk within communities. As practitioners, Mike and Olivia are boots-on-the-ground. They do this work with homeowners, fire departments, insurers, and other practitioners. This gives them insight on what is working, what is not, and where good intentions fall short. Mike and Olivia are optimistic that disasters can be prevented, but only if we focus on what truly reduces risk. Mike Stohlgren and Olivia Anderson - aka MO - are wildfire mitigation practitioners based out of the Reno/Tahoe area, dedicated to the work of community wildfire risk reduction. They believe that with science-guided, forward-looking efforts, future wildfire disasters can be prevented. Through their company, MO's Defensible Space, they offer fire-smart landscaping services, landscape design, and wildfire risk assessments at both the community-scale and property-scale. Mike holds a master’s degree in Environmental Management and has developed two multi-scale wildfire risk assessment tools focused on parcel and community risk. Olivia is a NFPA Certified Wildfire Mitigation Specialist and former Defensible Space Specialist with the Truckee Fire Protection District; she is currently completing a Permaculture Landscape Design Program through Oregon State University.
