As of this morning, massive fires are drawing closer and closer to South Lake Tahoe. So while we have been talking about the crisis of affordable housing, we are also dealing with a crisis of megafires. And our guest today, Scott Ehlert, is here to make clear how these two crises are related, and what solutions are available to mitigate both.
We discuss the sordid history of development, regulations, and building codes; how community planning can be used as a roadblock to meaningful action; how car culture can make affordable housing impossible; why we need to change forest management practices to mitigate megafires; and more.
