a just a perfect storm of intense winds and low humidity turns into some of the largest wildfire in los angeles history. on today's show, we look into what happens in southern california and how residents there are planning to rebuild their lives, following the disaster. and these forces, and this is the street, the hi, this is richard. we tried rel, i'm sorry, yeah. when this report, if you are in these areas and you get an evacuation order, you need to leave, you need to leave immediately and everyone is wellbeing lives in los angeles. i am so beyond disgusted by so many posts that i'm seeing online about how

deep the rich they deserve. this only celebrities live in los angeles. so i just, i can't believe that everything is called a home towed is gone. who picks up the bell? how these schools, literally, everything needs to be rebuilt and some estimates say that's going to be billions of dollars. this is some of what we already saw on our social media feeds. people clean their homes, others describing how they felt about losing everything. but to understand the scale of the devastation we begin today's show with a look at the numbers. as soon as the california walled fires interrupted, on the 7th of january, more than 19000 hector's burned. at least 28 people were killed. and more than 17000 instructors have been completely destroyed. it could cost california up to $275000000000.00 to rebuild. but what is the human cost on the catastrophic basis today?

we'll also talk about what is driving these extreme long flyers as a climate change drought risk management, and what changes are needed in the future. joining us to discuss our summer d, a climate scientist based in los angeles activist and content creator rebecca face quinn, noah haines and academic policy writer and advocates. she has many other hats, but we'll stick to these today. and that's we didn't say who was born and raised in california and is a resident of l. a. thank you all so much for your time. naturally, i would like to start with you because we came across this particular clips that you posted online. and i want to ask you about it. so the server, it's so hard. sure. as long as you know, your internet's rolled up. no. nope. over the group of food stamp. okay. and

katrina. so my family has been devastated twice by extreme climate events. so in terms of mismanagement, you know, i saw a be affected by the time it prices, because the time in prices is due, stabilizing the global jet stream, which is this huge river car and whether that goes all around the globe. and when that becomes the stabilized, when patterns can also become do stabilize. we're going to talk a little bit more about that towards the end of the show. but i want to bring rebecca in because something else spread really fast. um, online, at least misinformation. there were a number of examples of this, including of course, the hollywood sign up in flames. turns out that was a i, as a california in rebecca. how dangerous did you find some of the information shared online, the missed information. i mean, of course, and what would you like maybe to clarify, to our viewers right now around the world? well,

i would like to say that misinformation can really cost lives. there's been misinformation being spread around the karen bass, the funded the fire department. we know that is not true. the fire department budget was increased over the past year by over $17000000.00. and a lot of people seem to be also taking that as karen bass is in charge of all of the la county when turn bath is only mirror of l. a proper alt, dina. and all of these other areas have different governments and different people in charge. karen bass can just give money to whatever, said he, she's not in charge of. there is something to be said about whether or not those funds were divested correctly or you know, put out directly to the departments that were needed me by that's they were not the funded. and that's something that

a lot of people just took and ran with. a lot of people spread this information that everyone in l a can can't afford to rebuild, but they were a month away from being kicked off their insurance one month. and so there are many people in the house in the community that are facing a situation where they're finding, they're just finding out that they were kicked off their insurance. and i want to make something very clear that be just because you have insurance, it doesn't necessarily mean you have fire insurance. and also like in katrina, many people had insurance, but they didn't necessarily have flood insurance. so people are just really digging through their own lives. and finding out exactly what they were insured, insured for, and because of all of the chaos that's going on with fema and it will be more chaos as unfortunately, you know, disasters are politicized. and unfortunately we, we have a lot and right now that's not that interested in helping people because the 8 on

california is conditioned. they wants to put conditions on it. we don't know what's going to happen and that is my sincerest beer, the chaos, the disable ization. how uh, how home displacement, all of these numbers are going to skyrocket, unemployment scale that could potentially turn into a career that they allow them to make, you know, 6 to a 100 k year with benefits retirement, and much more. right? so, you know, when you at fire camps, you know, the benefits are pretty much you get better food. you can meet your, you know, me with your family in a park like setting, instead of behind the glass. you're out there in the community, you know, helping out. instead of you being in a cell pretty much all day and like, so for me it was life changing on like you said earlier, and it's about how we could put that training into to work once. um, you know, man and women come home and we need to provide a pathway to get folks

a career that, that, that doesn't just help them. but it helps out our community. and because you know, fire prevention is a key and we need more of a and rebecca, your take on this and all the conversation around it online, but also on how this crisis will further exacerbate all the crisis in and around los angeles. yes, los angeles is still recovering from the mass, disabling event that was covered 19 as our entire country. as honestly as the world is and waste the burning of so many homes that were built in the forty's $56.00. these, there's a lot of assessed us in the air as we know, assess this is a known carcinogen and added on top of that, the new immuno compromise ation of many people to cover 19, well,

we're going to see is a doubling down almost on a mass disabling event, which is really tragic because the people are rising to the biggest challenges as they say is critical. societal and economic issues for cause new directions come.
