Description

Thousands of new homes and businesses will be built to replace the ones that were incinerated by the Los Angeles County fires this month. If done properly, the rebuilding could create more resilient communities. However, if done poorly the structures will be tomorrow's fire fuel.

The panelists are: 

Christopher Boone, USC Price Dean and Director of USC Urban Futures.

Santina Contreras, USC Price Assistant Professor of Environmental Planning.

William Deverell, Historian and Co-Director of The West on Fire.
