All week, NPR is exploring solutions to the climate crisis through the lens of "Rethinking Home" — how our communities can be more resilient to climate change.



On Midday Edition, we highlight ongoing efforts to fireproof our homes through the California Wildfire Mitigation Program. We hear from an expert whose home survived both the Station and Eaton fires in Los Angeles.



Then, we zoom out to discuss how California should adapt its land development policies to respond to wildfire threats.



Guests:



J. Lopez, executive director of the California Wildfire Mitigation Program



Tom Corringham, economist at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography



Cary Lowe, retired land use lawyer and writer
