Climate change brings the prospect of larger, more dangerous wildfires in the future — perhaps like those that have recently devastated parts of California and the Bay Area. What actions are being taken in Santa Clara County to prepare? With this expert panel we’ll discuss the role of land use planning, emergency preparedness partnerships and other ways to improve fire resiliency in the wildland-urban interface.
