How can we address the various factors contributing to the wildfires plaguing California? On the fifth and final episode of California Burning, we seek solutions. We learn about alternative building materials that can withstand fire, and we go to a fire-resistant house that was the only one in its neighborhood to survive the 2018 Carr Fire.
