Great example! We need to find a way to fund home hardening and defensible space updates for those who can’t afford to do them on their on their own! Recent wildfires have shown us that entire neighborhoods need to transition to a more resilient state and that takes money and time… #fireresilient

Retrofitting entire neighborhoods is challenging… but new construction? That’s our low hanging fruit. If all new construction follows Chapter 7A and requires no combustibles in zone zero, we might have a chance. #fireresilient
We need more of this! #OpenAccess science on #PostFire #Restoration to help ecosystems become more #ClimateResilient and #FireResilient.
