A good YouTube series on the L.A. fires and the future of fire in the area

This is a quality project by a few guys who are really good at what they do. The Lookout (Zeke Lunder) is doing good work in many aspects of wildfire in California.

The series begins with the Eaton Fire in Pasadena/Altadena, explores Sants Ana wind events a bit, the landscape involved, and how neighborhoods and homes were built on that landscape. In the second episode they go to Bel Air and Beverly Hills and talk about how they will most likely face a similar fire in the future. The third episode talks about home hardening and what homeowners can do to help their own properties survive fire. The fourth part, released today, heads to the Palisades and begins to talk about that fire and how people and planners should think about rebuilding differently.

This is an educated, realistic look at the fires and what the area may face going forward if it chooses to rebuild in the same manner as before the fires. It is worth the time for anyone interested.
