We Can't Stop Wildfires—But Here's How We Live With Them
Season 1 Episode 1 | 10m 15s
| Video has closed captioning.
The 2020 fire season is devastating communities, forcing thousands to evacuate, and choking the air with smoke. In this episode of Weathered, scientists and Native leaders tell us what we can do to reduce the harm fires can cause through design, building materials, and listening to the land. We’ll even watch researchers burn a home in their lab to identify weak points and make them stronger.
