Urban water systems aren’t equipped to fight wildfires and haven’t been expected to do so. A conversation with Drs. Greg Pierce (UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation) and Faith Kearns (ASU Water Innovation Initiative) about water infrastructure before, during, and following wildfires. Released January 24, 2025.
“There’s water, there’s disaster, there’s power and climate change in the background of everything. So it’s a really complex set of things that communities are going to have to decide for themselves and then you end up with these equity issues.”
