In this episode of Conservation Conversations we continue our mini series Conservation on Fire!
We talk with the award winning and best-selling author and artist Obi Kaufmann. Obi Kaufmann has authored six books that present the magic that is the network of living systems in California in the most beautiful way. His latest work “The State of Fire - Why California Burns” confronts one of California’s most pressing social and ecological challenges while sharing a deepened love for the natural world and a refreshingly hopeful vision of California’s future.
Please enjoy our conversation with Obi!

Please do yourself a favor and follow him on social media @coyotethunder and purchase his new book The State of Fire - Why California Burns. But we also recommend looking into the rest of his work as they are all great.
