I'm going to go against the grain here and say the use of glyphosate is likely the appropriate thing to do. If you actually read the article they're talking about targeting very specific areas with backpack sprayers to control invasives/non natives so that native trees can grow back after a wildfire. This is conservationism. Most conservationists will use glyphosate or other broad leaf herbicides for this type of thing, because often it is the only way to get rid of aggressive invasives and allow natives to flourish. It does not have long lasting affects on the soil according to research I have seen and if they're careful about it (which the US Forestry Service usually is, they tend to know their shit) then it won't end up in the water either.

This sounds like rich white lady not understanding how forests are managed/conserved imo.
