Sea Change Radio

Yes, there will be mil­lions of col­lec­tive sighs as the dead­liest pan­dem­ic in a cen­tu­ry begins to abate and a more open sum­mer kicks off. But sum­mer also means the begin­ning of the wild­fire sea­son in the Amer­i­can West – a slew of dead­ly dis­as­ters lying in wait. Last year was the worst fire sea­son in California’s record­ed his­to­ry and drought-like con­di­tions por­tend anoth­er chal­leng­ing sum­mer. This week on Sea Change Radio, we speak to Pro­fes­sor Crys­tal Kold­en of the Uni­ver­si­ty of Cal­i­for­nia Merced, a wild­fire expert and for­mer fire­fight­er. We talk about cur­rent prepa­ra­tions for impend­ing fires, where she believes resources should be direct­ed, and the eth­i­cal dilem­ma pre­sent­ed by California’s reliance on inmate firefighters.
