We’ve known what we need to do for about 50 years, but inaction and climate change have made it much harder.
Between the COVID-19 pandemic and a brutal wildfire season, 2020 is all about the stuff we definitely knew how to prevent and just … didn’t want to. Today we’re going to zoom in a bit on those fires and get a little more hung up on the president’s income tax deferral. We’re gonna need a drink.
Here’s a list of everything we talked about today:
“I Need You to Care That Our Country Is on Fire” from New York Times Opinion
“They Know How to Prevent Megafires. Why Won’t Anybody Listen?” from ProPublica
“Some Large Employers Reject Trump’s Payroll-Tax Deferral Plan” from The Wall Street Journal
“A puppy with a cleft lip is adopted by a boy with a cleft lip: ‘They instantly loved each other’” from The Washington Post
“New California law to make it easier for former inmate firefighters to turn pro” from NBC News
