Everything is on fire. This is the new normal for California and the western states. Currently there are nearly 100 fires burning across the US, some of the most destructive are growing here in California.\n\nGlobal climate change has disrupted the natural cycles that we have grown accustomed to; every year bigger, more destructive fires tear through dry vegetation and raze towns to their foundations. Billions of dollars are required every year to fight, contain, evacuate and rebuild.\n\nThis is our new reality. How will we as a city, a county, a state respond to this new, constant danger?\n\n*One correction: California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection was founded in 1885, I said 1895\n\nAudio from:\nKCRA\nAl Jazeera\nEuroNews\nCBS\nGMA\nKBCW
