Wildfires are becoming more severe and uncontrollable, even overwhelming ecosystems that evolved with fire. Climate change is intensifying these fires, and as more communities expand into naturally wild-prone areas, they become increasingly vulnerable to devastation. This episode explores the current state of wildfires that have become more destructive and uncontrollable than ever before. Despite the growing peril, underpaid wildland firefighters risk everything with minimal support, earning as little as $15 an hour. This episode ends with a blunt call for fair wages and urgent policy reforms to protect those who stand between us and an ever-growing threat of fire.
