On the fifth and final episode of California Burning, we look for solutions that address the many different factors associated with the wildfires plaguing our State. This includes a talk about alternative building materials that can withstand fire, and a tour of a fire resistant house that survived the Carr fire while the rest of his neighborhood burnt. 

 

We’ll also hear from a man starting a movement to restore ecosystems as well as a business woman using biochar to address the problems surrounding excess forest fuel and dead trees from bark beetle infestations.
