Listen "California’s burning question"
Episode Synopsis
As wildfires sweep through Southern California, experts have extensively explained their connection to climate change. With fires growing more intense and frequent, it’s crucial to understand the mix of natural and human factors behind them. From prolonged droughts and dry winds to expanding urban sprawl in fire-prone areas, we examine how these elements contribute to the recent blazes. But beyond the technical breakdown, we ask: what can we do to change the course of this fire-prone future? In this episode, we take a closer look with Stephen Pyne, an American fire historian, who raises the idea of Pyrocene. We explore how fires fit into a changing climate and what they mean for the future of fire management.
