The Wildfire Crisis and Community Resilience

In the wake of the Los Angeles fires and amid a growing wildfire crisis, Doug Green, manager of Headwaters Economics' Community Planning Assistance for Wildfire (CPAW) program, joins Andrew Kihn, programming vice chair of the Forest Resources Committee, for a conversation about the L.A. fires, the broader wildfire emergency, and the political and regulatory landscape of wildfire management in the United States. They discuss persistent challenges facing communities in the wildland-urban interface (WUI) and highlight best practices for improving wildfire preparedness in both the built environment and America's forested lands.
