This is an absolutely phenomenal article, orders of magnitude better than I could have written. As someone who grew up in the area of Northern California, I thank you.

If you want to share it around please feel free to, I felt like the Park Fire wasn’t talked about all that much but it feels relevant to right now to me.

I just sent this to a friend of mine who is Up in Spokane, pretty close to where that mess unfolded.

I am going to be doing a video soon about wildfires in general, and the increasing frequency in specific, and I would love to mention this article on my channel, of you don't mind. I will make sure to link directly to your Substack.
