From the tragedy in Hawaii — which has left at least 115 dead, and
over a thousand more missing, making it the deadliest blaze in the
last century of US history — to recent fires in Canada, California,
Indonesia and Brazil, the world seems to be engulfed in a megafire
crisis fueled by climate change. We bring on a panel of
practitioners to discuss what’s behind these megafires, and how we
can work to mitigate the crisis. Matt Weiner is the CEO of the
nonprofit Megafire Action, with a background in policymaking; Lenya
Quinn-Davidson is Director of University of California Agriculture
and Natural Resources Fire Network; and Chad Hanson is the Director
of the John Muir Project of Earth Island Institute, a research and
advocacy organization focused on federal public forestlands.
