The wildfires ravaging Los Angeles have caused incredible destruction — loss of life, thousands of homes and businesses gone or damaged and hundreds of thousands of people displaced. While the scale and speed of these fires may feel unprecedented, the dry, fire-prone foothills around LA burn often. Yet increasingly we see wildfires spurred by climate factors including warmer temperatures and weather whiplash — cycles of heavy precipitation followed by extreme drought.
This week we hear what climate science says about current and future wildfire risk and about ways to support an equitable recovery from such destructive urban disasters.
Guests:
Moira Morel, Cinematographer; Altadena resident
Hugh Safford, Research faculty, Department of Environmental Science and Policy, UC Davis
Andrew Rumbach, Senior Fellow, Urban Institute
Nick Mott, Multimedia journalist; Author of “This Is Wildfire”
