How Negligence and Corruption Fueled California's Wildfires
Manage episode 461295937 series 1262980
Lack of preparedness. Forestry mismanagement. Water mis-prioritization. And political failures at the highest levels...Jillian Michaels unpacks the latest wildfire catastrophe in Los Angeles with two powerhouse journalists - Michael Shellenberger and Ana Kasparian. What or who caused these fires and could this unmitigated disaster have been mitigated? Reservoirs were inexplicably drained during peak fire season. Hydrants weren’t working properly. Mismanaged evacuation orders led to gridlock, forcing terrified residents to flee on foot while meter maids continued writing parking tickets just miles away. Fire department budgets were slashed. Crucial bills, designed to enable life-saving prescribed burns, were vetoed by Governor Gavin Newsom. And Mayor Karen Bass focused on optics as critical infrastructure collapsed. Negligence? Corruption? It’s time to find out. In this show we’re tearing apart the political and systemic failures that created a catastrophic inferno. This is about more than Los Angeles—this is a warning for every community grappling with leadership unfit to manage crisis.
