 A new analysis in the Washington Post finds one in six people in the country lives in an area with significant wildfire risk. No surprise that California has the most homes in these danger areas. 

The question is whether more homes are being built in areas that were already prone to fires OR if areas previously considered safe are now in the danger zone. With us is Chad Hanson, co-founder of the John Muir Project and author of Smokescreen: Debunking Wildfire Myths to Save Our Forests and Our Climate.
