California wildfires burned millions of acres this year, destroying entire towns and killing people. As wildfires become deadlier and more difficult to control, scientists say it will only get worse. Now, wind-driven wildfires like the Santa Anas that Southern California experiences are moving farther north and striking when conditions are hotter and drier.

The third episode of this season’s Unfold podcast is “Hotter, Drier, Windier: California Wildfires Under a Changing Climate.” Launching today, it examines how fire is changing California’s landscapes and how we might manage this going forward.
