Appreciate the opportunity to chat w/ @nytimes.com about how we can build smarter (and to code!!) after these wildfires. Suspending wildfire building codes only kicks the can down the road and invites another disaster. Hardened homes and defensible space for the win. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2025/01/15/climate/los-angeles-housing-fire-risk.html?searchResultPosition=1

Climate change is the problem here.
So let’s pretend it’s something else, so we can keep on keeping on,
till the planet is inhabitable.
In addition, the government needs to fund, develop, and implement land management and fire mitigation plans and proceedures, especially in droughts.
