The state has spent about $3.7 billion on forest management in the past seven years. Communities, fire districts and others are doing their part, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, some insurance companies, citing growing risks and costs, have paused or stopped writing new policies in California, causing a crisis of home insurance affordability and availability. Some homeowners have \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/housing/2023/11/fire-insurance-california/\">seen their premiums spike\u003c/a> or are being priced out, while others have been forced to turn to the \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2024/01/california-fire-insurance-2/\">ever-growing FAIR Plan\u003c/a>, the insurer of last resort that offers less coverage but higher insurance premiums anyway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/economy/2024/03/california-home-insurance-market/\">rolls out his plan\u003c/a> to try to reverse that trend, three state lawmakers are pushing for mitigation to be taken into account when insurers set premiums or when they decide whether to offer policies at all.

Josh Becker, the Democrat representing Menlo Park. “As a state, we’re doing that homework.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becker’s staff cites the billions of dollars the state has spent on reducing fuel and managing vegetation since 2017, when wildfires consumed many parts of California. The sum doesn’t include other spending on fire engines, air tankers and increasing staff for Cal Fire, which has added about 4,500 positions in the past decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bill authored by Becker seeks to incorporate mitigation into insurance companies’ underwriting decisions — when they consider whether to write or renew policies. \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240sb1060?slug=CA_202320240SB1060\">Senate Bill 1060\u003c/a> awaits a hearing in the Senate Appropriations Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the regulations Lara has unveiled as part of his plan to try to fix the state’s insurance market involves allowing insurers to use catastrophe models in rate-making, which includes taking mitigation into account. But some say that’s not enough to address the availability of insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former state Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones recently told CalMatters that Becker’s bill is needed specifically for underwriting because the insurance commissioner’s authority is limited to rate-making.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Local, state and federal governments are spending billions of dollars in forest treatments, so homeowners ought to see a benefit,” Jones said. “That’s not happening now, but should happen.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Wildfire mitigation and risk\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Studies show that mitigation reduces wildfire risks.

A subsequent Moody’s study found that utility Southern California Edison’s actions to harden its power grid reduced the \u003ca href=\"https://www.rms.com/sites/default/files/2023-04/2023_MoodysRMS_SoCalEdison_CaseStudy.pdf\">risk of catastrophic wildfire losses\u003c/a> by 75% to 80%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, insurance industry experts are concerned about Becker’s bill. For one thing, they say incorporating mitigation into underwriting shifts more financial risk to insurers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, they say they already use models that account for mitigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sheri Lee Scott, an actuary for a Milliman Property & Casualty practice in Orange County, said the bill is yet another regulation that could “exacerbate” the insurance crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Insurance companies are trying their best to incorporate [mitigation] already,” Scott said, pointing to a recent state regulation directing insurers to incorporate mitigation into determining premiums — which Scott wrote in a report “presents tremendous challenges for insurers in terms of compliance and the potential erosion of adequate rates for wildfire risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The insurance commissioner said his office \u003ca href=\"https://www.insurance.ca.gov/0250-insurers/0800-rate-filings/0200-prior-approval-factors/upload/FAQ-Mitigation-in-Rating-Plans-and-Wildfire-Risk-Models-Regulation_2023-02-16.pdf\">started enforcing that rule on considering mitigation last year\u003c/a>, but homeowners, insurance agents, fire chiefs and other lawmakers say the different ways everyone is trying to reduce wildfire risk isn’t making enough of a dent in the state’s insurance crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bernard Molloy, fire chief of Murrieta, said during a public workshop hosted by the Insurance Department last week that “residents don’t receive credit” for the “tremendous amount of work” they put into trying to reduce wildfire risk.

The state has spent about $3.7 billion on forest management in the past seven years. Communities, fire districts and others are doing their part, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, some insurance companies, citing growing risks and costs, have paused or stopped writing new policies in California, causing a crisis of home insurance affordability and availability.

The sum doesn’t include other spending on fire engines, air tankers and increasing staff for Cal Fire, which has added about 4,500 positions in the past decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bill authored by Becker seeks to incorporate mitigation into insurance companies’ underwriting decisions — when they consider whether to write or renew policies. \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240sb1060?slug=CA_202320240SB1060\">Senate Bill 1060\u003c/a> awaits a hearing in the Senate Appropriations Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the regulations Lara has unveiled as part of his plan to try to fix the state’s insurance market involves allowing insurers to use catastrophe models in rate-making, which includes taking mitigation into account.

A recent \u003ca href=\"https://content.naic.org/sites/default/files/cipr_report_wildfire_mitigation.pdf\">study by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners\u003c/a> found that structural modifications can reduce wildfire risk by 40% and, when combined with vegetation modifications, can reduce risk by 75%. A subsequent Moody’s study found that utility Southern California Edison’s actions to harden its power grid reduced the \u003ca href=\"https://www.rms.com/sites/default/files/2023-04/2023_MoodysRMS_SoCalEdison_CaseStudy.pdf\">risk of catastrophic wildfire losses\u003c/a> by 75% to 80%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, insurance industry experts are concerned about Becker’s bill. For one thing, they say incorporating mitigation into underwriting shifts more financial risk to insurers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, they say they already use models that account for mitigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sheri Lee Scott, an actuary for a Milliman Property & Casualty practice in Orange County, said the bill is yet another regulation that could “exacerbate” the insurance crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Insurance companies are trying their best to incorporate [mitigation] already,” Scott said, pointing to a recent state regulation directing insurers to incorporate mitigation into determining premiums — which Scott wrote in a report “presents tremendous challenges for insurers in terms of compliance and the potential erosion of adequate rates for wildfire risk.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The insurance commissioner said his office \u003ca href=\"https://www.insurance.ca.gov/0250-insurers/0800-rate-filings/0200-prior-approval-factors/upload/FAQ-Mitigation-in-Rating-Plans-and-Wildfire-Risk-Models-Regulation_2023-02-16.pdf\">started enforcing that rule on considering mitigation last year\u003c/a>, but homeowners, insurance agents, fire chiefs and other lawmakers say the different ways everyone is trying to reduce wildfire risk isn’t making enough of a dent in the state’s insurance crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bernard Molloy, fire chief of Murrieta, said during a public workshop hosted by the Insurance Department last week that “residents don’t receive credit” for the “tremendous amount of work” they put into trying to reduce wildfire risk.

Back when we had these wildfires of 2019 and 2020, I was pretty cavalier, to be truthful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, I would completely change my behavior in terms of how I would protect myself. The other one, though, is the possibility that control burns can really help be a mitigation effort, and I’ll explain why. Once you’ve done the controlled burn, then if we do have a wildfire, those areas still can burn in subsequent years, but they burn in much, much lower severity. So it ends up being this propagating win, if you will, that we keep the heavy metals in their more benign form rather than moving into this really toxic state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11970558/new-stanford-research-reveals-wildfires-release-toxic-heavy-metals-into-air","authors":["11362","11238"],"categories":["news_8"],"tags":["news_20341","news_20023","news_27626","news_3187","news_4463"],"featImg":"news_11970576","label":"news"},"news_11969882":{"type":"posts","id":"news_11969882","meta":{"index":"posts_1716263798","site":"news","id":"11969882","score":null,"sort":[1702638008000]},"parent":0,"labelTerm":{},"blocks":[],"publishDate":1702638008,"format":"audio","title":"When Disaster Strikes in English Only","headTitle":"When Disaster Strikes in English Only | KQED","content":"\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"#episode-transcript\">\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">View the full episode transcript.\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Despite the many languages spoken in the Bay Area, Alameda and Solano Counties only send out emergency alerts in English, leaving at least one in ten Bay Area residents at risk of missing life-saving information in the face of disaster.

Local news to keep you rooted. Back in September when wildfire smoke hovered over the Bay Area, emergency alerts started popping up on people’s phones. Air quality reached hazardous levels for those with respiratory diseases, the alerts read. But for the thousands of Bay Area residents who speak a language other than English at home, it would take days for them to receive the same alert in their native language, if at all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>You know, if you’re not hearing that you’re evacuating because it’s misunderstood or they’re telling you the wrong area, you might not get out in time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>According to reporting from El Timpano, more than a quarter of non-English speakers living in the Bay Area don’t have access to emergency alerts in their native language. Today, we’re going to dig into this language gap in local emergency alert systems here in the bay and how one county has been working to change that. Jasmine, I wonder if you can maybe just start by explaining when a disaster strikes, do we have systems set up to let everyone know when stuff hits the fan?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>The short answer, unfortunately, is for a lot of people, no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Jasmine Aguilera is a senior reporter for El Timpano.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>For the most part, not everybody will receive timely and accurate information and in their own language or analysis adulting. But I found that of California’s 58 counties, only 21 offer alerts in a language other than English. We’re also giving these counties the benefit of the doubt because a lot of times we cannot actually test whether or not these alerts will send out until we can actually test their systems. So we took a look at the nine Bay Area counties here and determined that 3.2 million people here speak a language other than English at home. And because Alameda County and Solano counties do not offer alerts in a language other than English, we’re talking about at least 27% of the population that doesn’t have access to emergency alerts in their native language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>So those two counties that you mentioned, Alameda and Solano County, are the only counties in the Bay Area who aren’t offering alerts in any language other than English.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>Exactly. And I mean, two out of the nine. You know, that’s not bad. But these are counties with gigantic non-English populations. So it is a significant part of the population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, Jasmine, I wonder if we can step back a little bit and explain for us how these emergency alert systems work exactly and why is this happening? Where is the breakdown?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>So even signing up for alerts we found can be really challenging for non-English speakers. And we cover the Latino and Mayan immigrant communities here in the Bay Area. And we’ve done several surveys that show that often times, especially older immigrants do not have computers at home, do not have Internet at home. They may not even have an email address. And for the vast majority of California counties, you have to opt into the program. You have to actually go to the county website, put in your information.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And oftentimes these websites are asking for first name, last name, email addresses and home addresses. It is pretty obvious that if you’re an undocumented person, older person not familiar with technology, you may feel nervous about, you know, giving the government your personal address or you may not even understand what’s going on on this Web page. Many of the Web pages technically may offer a translated version if you select a widget at the top of the page to change your language preferences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>But if you’re not a tech savvy person, you may not know that at the top of the page where it says language, that means Ijeoma that you can change the language there. We found very few counties where you can text in to opt in, and even those it’s very hit or miss, whether or not even if you’re opting in, in your native language, whether you’ll actually receive ultimately those alerts in your native language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Do we know anything about why it is an opt in system when any one of us would want to know what’s happening as soon as it happens, if there’s an emergency in our community?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>It sounds like a simple fix would be to create one gigantic system where people can opt in and then those that are at a federal level that exists. But we’re talking about a state that is gigantic, very complicated, very ecologically diverse. Disasters will vary depending on what part of the state you’re in. And so purposefully, the state of California has tried to make sure that each county is empowered to design their own individual opt in programs because they want to make sure that officials can handle whatever disaster is going on on a very localized level. But that means there isn’t one simple solution if you’re trying to make sure that disaster responses can be very, very localized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And we found that, you know, sometimes there are the best intentions, just a lack of resources or other times they really just isn’t enough willpower to try to, you know, create a system. Maybe the population of non-English speakers is small enough that it’s just not top of mind for people when they’ve got so many other things that are on their plate. And then we found other counties that are in the middle of actually trying as hard as possible to create a robust system. But at least at the time of reporting, we found, you know, the vast majority of California’s programs are not up to the task right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Coming up, we’ll talk about one Bay Area county that has put in the work to reach more residents in an emergency. Stay with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Your reporting kind of zoomed into one Bay Area county in particular that was really trying to get its act together specifically for the Spanish speaking population. Can you tell me about that and what what your reporting found?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>We didn’t have to look very far. We went over to Sonoma County and saw the steps that they’ve taken. Basically, I mean, officials, they themselves will say it’s because they’ve faced disaster after disaster after disaster essentially since 2017. And they realized since the Tubbs fire of 2017 that their communications were just lacking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>In 2017 when that fire hit. None of this was in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>We spoke to Alma Bowen, who is the founder and executive director of Nuestra Comunidad, a nonprofit organization that focuses on disaster preparedness and reaching specifically Spanish speaking communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>And there was no organization. And so there were either duplication of services or there were needs that were not met because we simply didn’t know who could fill those needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>Ultimately, what they did is they revamped their Sonoma County coed community organizations active in disaster. That’s what the acronym for which was a coalition of nonprofit organizations that are all each doing their own individual work for the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>As soon as they’re going to activate their EOC or emergency operations center. That call gets put to code. From that moment on, until the emergency sovereign shuts down, one of us is present in that room. The expectation is that the message is go out simultaneously and at least English and Spanish, because those are our highest populations. And then year round, that’s part of the conversations we’re always having with them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And also giving them a seat at the county government table so that everybody is in communication. Everybody knows what to do whenever a disaster strikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>And so what’s happened is over time, we have become true partners now with the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And then on top of that, they’ve also created essentially this bank of alerts prepared in advance in English and Spanish at the county level. So we’re talking about thousands of clips of audio in English and Spanish that are localized per Sonoma County zone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>So if there’s, you know, flooding in zone four, you know, they’ve got a clip already prerecorded so that they can just send that out in a push of a button rather than, you know, trying to gather all of the people and find a translator and make sure, you know, that that it’s all recorded before sending. It saves potentially, you know, minutes or hours. It could save lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>You know, if you’re not hearing that, you’re evacuating because it’s misunderstood or they’re telling you the wrong area, you might not get out in time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>There’s still a lot of people who will be left out even now. But, you know, as far as we could see, they are the ones who have really taken on the task and have have tried to do as much as possible since 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>I’m wondering, Jasmine, why you think Sonoma County was able to get its act together in this where I guess address this and why haven’t other counties been able to do that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>Alma Bowen said it best that Sonoma County really had no choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>Had we not had Kincade Walbridge Glass, you know, all those different fires right out like almost on the heel of each other? I don’t know. It’s like every time a fire hit, it just kept smacking him into reality. You have to do something.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>She also said it’s important for these counties in California to realize that they have time right now. They can right now in this moment, try to revamp their programs, because when a disaster hits, that’s you know, that’s not the moment that you need to be trying to fix your system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>My words of advice is, don’t wait.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, how do we do that then, Jasmyne? How do we get other counties on the same level as Sonoma County here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>In the state of California themselves will tell you that every county has to own this. Lisa California, for example, it is a government level organization that will aid counties in revamping their system, that will provide, you know, language already pre written and resources already established. But each county needs to be able to own. They don’t want to step on toes is what they told me. It’s a matter of willpower and it’s a matter of resources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>There is not a one size fits all that will solve the problem for each each county. We did find examples of other counties who are making efforts. They are taking steps at the moment. It’s a it’s a process. It takes time. I even in Sonoma County, it’s taken years. It’s complicated, but it’s also not complicated in a weird way. You know, there are solutions, there are models. Sonoma County is an example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>It’s doable. It’s doable. What is your biggest takeaway from this story?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>My biggest takeaway really has been how essential language access is. It’s something that, you know, as an English speaker, as a bilingual speaker, but primarily English speaker. I realize the enormous privilege now that I have whenever I receive an alert about, you know, just a traffic jam in San Francisco that I can avoid, other people will probably get stuck up in that jam. Imagine, you know, just kind of the snowball effect there. If you get stuck in that traffic jam, you’re late for work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And for me, maybe being late for work isn’t so much a significant thing. But for someone else who is an hourly worker, that’s significant. It’s not even just emergencies. Sometimes it’s as simple as just getting through your daily life. Making things more accessible through language, I think is kind of the least we can do in California. You know, the state with the largest immigrant population in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, Jasmine, thank you so much for sharing your reporting with us and joining us on the show.

It is pretty obvious that if you’re an undocumented person, older person not familiar with technology, you may feel nervous about, you know, giving the government your personal address or you may not even understand what’s going on on this Web page. Many of the Web pages technically may offer a translated version if you select a widget at the top of the page to change your language preferences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>But if you’re not a tech savvy person, you may not know that at the top of the page where it says language, that means Ijeoma that you can change the language there. We found very few counties where you can text in to opt in, and even those it’s very hit or miss, whether or not even if you’re opting in, in your native language, whether you’ll actually receive ultimately those alerts in your native language.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Do we know anything about why it is an opt in system when any one of us would want to know what’s happening as soon as it happens, if there’s an emergency in our community?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>It sounds like a simple fix would be to create one gigantic system where people can opt in and then those that are at a federal level that exists. But we’re talking about a state that is gigantic, very complicated, very ecologically diverse. Disasters will vary depending on what part of the state you’re in. And so purposefully, the state of California has tried to make sure that each county is empowered to design their own individual opt in programs because they want to make sure that officials can handle whatever disaster is going on on a very localized level. But that means there isn’t one simple solution if you’re trying to make sure that disaster responses can be very, very localized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And we found that, you know, sometimes there are the best intentions, just a lack of resources or other times they really just isn’t enough willpower to try to, you know, create a system. Maybe the population of non-English speakers is small enough that it’s just not top of mind for people when they’ve got so many other things that are on their plate. And then we found other counties that are in the middle of actually trying as hard as possible to create a robust system. But at least at the time of reporting, we found, you know, the vast majority of California’s programs are not up to the task right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Coming up, we’ll talk about one Bay Area county that has put in the work to reach more residents in an emergency. Stay with us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Your reporting kind of zoomed into one Bay Area county in particular that was really trying to get its act together specifically for the Spanish speaking population. Can you tell me about that and what what your reporting found?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>We didn’t have to look very far. We went over to Sonoma County and saw the steps that they’ve taken. Basically, I mean, officials, they themselves will say it’s because they’ve faced disaster after disaster after disaster essentially since 2017. And they realized since the Tubbs fire of 2017 that their communications were just lacking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>In 2017 when that fire hit. None of this was in place.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>We spoke to Alma Bowen, who is the founder and executive director of Nuestra Comunidad, a nonprofit organization that focuses on disaster preparedness and reaching specifically Spanish speaking communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>And there was no organization. And so there were either duplication of services or there were needs that were not met because we simply didn’t know who could fill those needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>Ultimately, what they did is they revamped their Sonoma County coed community organizations active in disaster. That’s what the acronym for which was a coalition of nonprofit organizations that are all each doing their own individual work for the community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>As soon as they’re going to activate their EOC or emergency operations center. That call gets put to code. From that moment on, until the emergency sovereign shuts down, one of us is present in that room. The expectation is that the message is go out simultaneously and at least English and Spanish, because those are our highest populations. And then year round, that’s part of the conversations we’re always having with them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And also giving them a seat at the county government table so that everybody is in communication. Everybody knows what to do whenever a disaster strikes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>And so what’s happened is over time, we have become true partners now with the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And then on top of that, they’ve also created essentially this bank of alerts prepared in advance in English and Spanish at the county level. So we’re talking about thousands of clips of audio in English and Spanish that are localized per Sonoma County zone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>So if there’s, you know, flooding in zone four, you know, they’ve got a clip already prerecorded so that they can just send that out in a push of a button rather than, you know, trying to gather all of the people and find a translator and make sure, you know, that that it’s all recorded before sending. It saves potentially, you know, minutes or hours. It could save lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>You know, if you’re not hearing that, you’re evacuating because it’s misunderstood or they’re telling you the wrong area, you might not get out in time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>There’s still a lot of people who will be left out even now. But, you know, as far as we could see, they are the ones who have really taken on the task and have have tried to do as much as possible since 2017.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>I’m wondering, Jasmine, why you think Sonoma County was able to get its act together in this where I guess address this and why haven’t other counties been able to do that?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>Alma Bowen said it best that Sonoma County really had no choice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>Had we not had Kincade Walbridge Glass, you know, all those different fires right out like almost on the heel of each other? I don’t know. It’s like every time a fire hit, it just kept smacking him into reality. You have to do something.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>She also said it’s important for these counties in California to realize that they have time right now. They can right now in this moment, try to revamp their programs, because when a disaster hits, that’s you know, that’s not the moment that you need to be trying to fix your system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Alma Bowen: \u003c/strong>My words of advice is, don’t wait.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, how do we do that then, Jasmyne? How do we get other counties on the same level as Sonoma County here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>In the state of California themselves will tell you that every county has to own this. Lisa California, for example, it is a government level organization that will aid counties in revamping their system, that will provide, you know, language already pre written and resources already established. But each county needs to be able to own. They don’t want to step on toes is what they told me. It’s a matter of willpower and it’s a matter of resources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>There is not a one size fits all that will solve the problem for each each county. We did find examples of other counties who are making efforts. They are taking steps at the moment. It’s a it’s a process. It takes time. I even in Sonoma County, it’s taken years. It’s complicated, but it’s also not complicated in a weird way. You know, there are solutions, there are models. Sonoma County is an example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>It’s doable. It’s doable. What is your biggest takeaway from this story?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>My biggest takeaway really has been how essential language access is. It’s something that, you know, as an English speaker, as a bilingual speaker, but primarily English speaker. I realize the enormous privilege now that I have whenever I receive an alert about, you know, just a traffic jam in San Francisco that I can avoid, other people will probably get stuck up in that jam. Imagine, you know, just kind of the snowball effect there. If you get stuck in that traffic jam, you’re late for work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Jasmine Aguilera: \u003c/strong>And for me, maybe being late for work isn’t so much a significant thing. But for someone else who is an hourly worker, that’s significant. It’s not even just emergencies. Sometimes it’s as simple as just getting through your daily life. Making things more accessible through language, I think is kind of the least we can do in California. You know, the state with the largest immigrant population in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Well, Jasmine, thank you so much for sharing your reporting with us and joining us on the show.

Local news to keep you rooted. Yearly wildfires weren’t really a thing that I remember worrying about growing up in California. But I remember clearly when that shift happened for me back in 2017 when Napa and Sonoma counties were on fire. There have been so many fires since then. So what does it mean to witness that shift that’s happening? How do we wrestle with the fear and the uncertainty of what’s to come? To know and also accept that our beautiful state is not only changing, but in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I was thinking about how I was kind of nostalgic for this other time, sort of this period of my childhood where I could live here without being perpetually afraid of fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That’s what today’s episode is about. You’re going to hear from investigative reporter Erica Hellerstein, who wrote a piece called Grieving California for Coda Story in 2022. Erica talks about how we grieve the California we once knew and how we can use that grief to fuel us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>California has always been sort of at the front lines of change demographically in the U.S., but also politically, Culturally, like we’ve always kind of experienced things a little bit earlier than other parts of the country. And you could definitely say the same is true of the impacts of climate change. 2020, I was around Truckee. There was a fire and it was very smoky and it was in August. I was walking my dog. There weren’t very many people. There was very heavy smoke. It wasn’t advisable to be out. And there was a man out, like sort of at the Bank of Donner Lake, just looking around in disbelief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And he was from there and he’d grown up there and like this was very much, you know, his home. And he could not understand what was happening. I remember we had a conversation and he just kept repeating like, it’s not supposed to be like this. It’s not supposed to be like this. He was, you know, an adult older man. And just seeing that like visible anxiety and frustration and confusion and anger like all coming together just at the banks of Donner Lake in this moment. When he was going through it, like really embodied what a lot of people were going through and and feel like this is not how it’s supposed to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And yet, if you choose to stay in wherever it is, that might be how it is. That might be what the future is like. And like, what do you do with that? In 2021. I was just thinking about seasons and how my relationship to seasons in California felt like it was changing because in the past, growing up in the Bay Area, I always thought of that sort of like September-October period as the best time and in the bay because it was finally hot now. I was always absolutely terrified of those. Like I was feeling really scared because there’s this certainty that there will be fires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I think a lot of people now approach that time of year with a lot of fear. And so I was just like, Huh, that’s interesting that my relationship with seasons feels so different, and I wonder if other people feel that way. And so I just kind of started talking to my friends about it. But I was thinking about how I was kind of nostalgic for this other time and nostalgia for, you know, sort of this period of my childhood where I could live here without being perpetually afraid of fire, literally just typed into Google. Like nostalgia, sadness, fire, just to be like, who’s talking about this? Because I also just didn’t feel like it was something I was hearing about.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>Like we obviously heard about environmental consequences of fire and climate change and the physical health consequences. But the mental health part of it, like it was just not something that I felt like I had been exposed to conversations about that. So lo and behold, I found that there was this really interesting environmental philosopher who came up with his own word to describe the feeling of homesickness when you never leave. So the word is called “solastalgia,” Glenn Albrechtt, who’s this environmental philosopher, came up with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>The way that he described this, you know, homesickness for a home you’ve never left because it’s changing so much due to the environment and climate change. Knowing that there’s someone else who felt the same way and felt that it was so urgent to come up with language to describe it felt very validating to me, like, I’m not the only person who feels this way. And I also began to learn that there was this very like new group of people that I had never heard about who were God, I guess I call them the climate givers, but they’re involved in this climate grief movement where they believe that grieving losses associated with climate change are very crucial to actually dealing with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I met with some of them and learned about their processes and they enter sort of a ten step program similar to Alcoholics Anonymous. And the idea is to get people comfortable with thinking about the grief that they feel associated with fires and climate change and ultimately lead up to action, but that you can’t necessarily start with action if you haven’t begun to accept the grief that you feel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Step one Accept the severity of the predicament. Step two be with uncertainty. Step three Honor my mortality and the mortality of all. Step four Do inner work. Step five Develop awareness of biases and perception. Step six Practice Gratitude. Witness beauty and create connections. Step seven Take breaks and rest. Step eight Grieve the harm I have caused. Step nine Show up. And step ten Reinvest in meaningful efforts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I definitely identified with some of these steps and talked to people who started. The first step, which I found really profound, was just accept the severity of the crisis. And that is such a difficult thing for a lot of people to do because once you accept this, it’s like, what then? It’s accepting that the lives that we remembered from our childhood like that may not be the lives that our children have. And what do you do with that? Based on a lot of conversations I had with people, that’s kind of the hardest place to start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>But there’s something very unburdening as well about it, because part of it is that people don’t really talk about this that much. We grieve people we love when they die, and these wild places we love are dying and changing and like, why would we not be very sad about that? Why would we not be mourning? When I was in the depths of grief over the suicide of my best friend, I finally, like went to therapy after, like way too long, something my therapist said, which, you know, took me like, a long time to absorb, was you’ll miss how much you’re grieving because it’s an expression of how close you feel to this person right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And so there’s sort of this parallel, like the more acute the grief is, the more connected to the person you’re grieving. You feel because it’s closer to the loss, the grief that you feel is an expression also of your closeness to this place and how much you love it. And I did a lot of my interviews with people who are involved in the climate grieving movement. I just told them to bring me to a place where they feel their grief most acutely. And so we would go to these trails or the mountains or the ocean. And I’d never sort of intentionally gone to that space, those kinds of spaces, thinking about grief and climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And it totally changed my experience. But I also felt like it was very important because it made me understand the stakes and think about the stakes differently. At a certain point in that arc of grief, I had to be like, okay, I really now do need to accept that this is a real loss. And now my acceptance of the loss means that I have to chart a future that doesn’t look like what I thought it would look like. And that’s terrifying. Now I need to think about accepting the place that we’re in and that collectively our lives might look different and the things that we’ve gotten used to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And it’s very consumption-oriented lifestyle we’ve had where we just always think we can get everything on demand. Like maybe there’s actually consequences to that. Accepting that the status quo is unsustainable. For me was actually kind of weirdly liberating. Be like, okay, now I have to like make my life. And I have to think about the future differently. One thing I thought that was interesting about or useful about the way the Good Grief Network approaches the idea of action is it’s not like prescriptive. It’s not like action has to look like going to a rally for everybody or being involved in local politics or, you know, advocacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>They approach it in a very open way. So everybody gets to decide what action means for them. So maybe it’s being a youth educator and dealing with the next generation. Maybe it’s being involved in the nascent and fascinating field of psychology that is really aimed at exactly some of these things we’re thinking about, and even integrating climate change into approaches and therapy. Or maybe you’re an artist. There’s not one way to be active in that. There’s not one way to be involved and in this and take action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>That’s kind of why I see accepting the uncertainty of the future as strangely empowering because it allows for reimagining our lives and our livelihoods and how we live. And it opens the door to change and trying to make that outcome a little bit better. There’s like almost a responsibility that we have to ourselves, our peers and our children to not be nihilistic. That’s like really, really our responsibility in some ways because it is, I think, so easy to fall into that. I guess I can’t not feel hopeful because that feels too nihilistic for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That was investigative reporter Erica Hellerstein in conversation with KQED’s Erin Baldassari, who talked with Erica for the latest season of Sold Out: rethinking Housing in America. This season is all about the intersection of our housing and climate crises. And you can find Sold Out wherever you found the Bay.

Local news to keep you rooted. Yearly wildfires weren’t really a thing that I remember worrying about growing up in California. But I remember clearly when that shift happened for me back in 2017 when Napa and Sonoma counties were on fire. There have been so many fires since then. So what does it mean to witness that shift that’s happening? How do we wrestle with the fear and the uncertainty of what’s to come? To know and also accept that our beautiful state is not only changing, but in danger.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I was thinking about how I was kind of nostalgic for this other time, sort of this period of my childhood where I could live here without being perpetually afraid of fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That’s what today’s episode is about. You’re going to hear from investigative reporter Erica Hellerstein, who wrote a piece called Grieving California for Coda Story in 2022. Erica talks about how we grieve the California we once knew and how we can use that grief to fuel us.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>California has always been sort of at the front lines of change demographically in the U.S., but also politically, Culturally, like we’ve always kind of experienced things a little bit earlier than other parts of the country. And you could definitely say the same is true of the impacts of climate change. 2020, I was around Truckee. There was a fire and it was very smoky and it was in August. I was walking my dog. There weren’t very many people. There was very heavy smoke. It wasn’t advisable to be out. And there was a man out, like sort of at the Bank of Donner Lake, just looking around in disbelief.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And he was from there and he’d grown up there and like this was very much, you know, his home. And he could not understand what was happening. I remember we had a conversation and he just kept repeating like, it’s not supposed to be like this. It’s not supposed to be like this. He was, you know, an adult older man. And just seeing that like visible anxiety and frustration and confusion and anger like all coming together just at the banks of Donner Lake in this moment. When he was going through it, like really embodied what a lot of people were going through and and feel like this is not how it’s supposed to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And yet, if you choose to stay in wherever it is, that might be how it is. That might be what the future is like. And like, what do you do with that? In 2021. I was just thinking about seasons and how my relationship to seasons in California felt like it was changing because in the past, growing up in the Bay Area, I always thought of that sort of like September-October period as the best time and in the bay because it was finally hot now. I was always absolutely terrified of those. Like I was feeling really scared because there’s this certainty that there will be fires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I think a lot of people now approach that time of year with a lot of fear. And so I was just like, Huh, that’s interesting that my relationship with seasons feels so different, and I wonder if other people feel that way. And so I just kind of started talking to my friends about it. But I was thinking about how I was kind of nostalgic for this other time and nostalgia for, you know, sort of this period of my childhood where I could live here without being perpetually afraid of fire, literally just typed into Google. Like nostalgia, sadness, fire, just to be like, who’s talking about this? Because I also just didn’t feel like it was something I was hearing about.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>Like we obviously heard about environmental consequences of fire and climate change and the physical health consequences. But the mental health part of it, like it was just not something that I felt like I had been exposed to conversations about that. So lo and behold, I found that there was this really interesting environmental philosopher who came up with his own word to describe the feeling of homesickness when you never leave. So the word is called “solastalgia,” Glenn Albrechtt, who’s this environmental philosopher, came up with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>The way that he described this, you know, homesickness for a home you’ve never left because it’s changing so much due to the environment and climate change. Knowing that there’s someone else who felt the same way and felt that it was so urgent to come up with language to describe it felt very validating to me, like, I’m not the only person who feels this way. And I also began to learn that there was this very like new group of people that I had never heard about who were God, I guess I call them the climate givers, but they’re involved in this climate grief movement where they believe that grieving losses associated with climate change are very crucial to actually dealing with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I met with some of them and learned about their processes and they enter sort of a ten step program similar to Alcoholics Anonymous. And the idea is to get people comfortable with thinking about the grief that they feel associated with fires and climate change and ultimately lead up to action, but that you can’t necessarily start with action if you haven’t begun to accept the grief that you feel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>Step one Accept the severity of the predicament. Step two be with uncertainty. Step three Honor my mortality and the mortality of all. Step four Do inner work. Step five Develop awareness of biases and perception. Step six Practice Gratitude. Witness beauty and create connections. Step seven Take breaks and rest. Step eight Grieve the harm I have caused. Step nine Show up. And step ten Reinvest in meaningful efforts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>I definitely identified with some of these steps and talked to people who started. The first step, which I found really profound, was just accept the severity of the crisis. And that is such a difficult thing for a lot of people to do because once you accept this, it’s like, what then? It’s accepting that the lives that we remembered from our childhood like that may not be the lives that our children have. And what do you do with that? Based on a lot of conversations I had with people, that’s kind of the hardest place to start.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>But there’s something very unburdening as well about it, because part of it is that people don’t really talk about this that much. We grieve people we love when they die, and these wild places we love are dying and changing and like, why would we not be very sad about that? Why would we not be mourning? When I was in the depths of grief over the suicide of my best friend, I finally, like went to therapy after, like way too long, something my therapist said, which, you know, took me like, a long time to absorb, was you’ll miss how much you’re grieving because it’s an expression of how close you feel to this person right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And so there’s sort of this parallel, like the more acute the grief is, the more connected to the person you’re grieving. You feel because it’s closer to the loss, the grief that you feel is an expression also of your closeness to this place and how much you love it. And I did a lot of my interviews with people who are involved in the climate grieving movement. I just told them to bring me to a place where they feel their grief most acutely. And so we would go to these trails or the mountains or the ocean. And I’d never sort of intentionally gone to that space, those kinds of spaces, thinking about grief and climate change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And it totally changed my experience. But I also felt like it was very important because it made me understand the stakes and think about the stakes differently. At a certain point in that arc of grief, I had to be like, okay, I really now do need to accept that this is a real loss. And now my acceptance of the loss means that I have to chart a future that doesn’t look like what I thought it would look like. And that’s terrifying. Now I need to think about accepting the place that we’re in and that collectively our lives might look different and the things that we’ve gotten used to.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>And it’s very consumption-oriented lifestyle we’ve had where we just always think we can get everything on demand. Like maybe there’s actually consequences to that. Accepting that the status quo is unsustainable. For me was actually kind of weirdly liberating. Be like, okay, now I have to like make my life. And I have to think about the future differently. One thing I thought that was interesting about or useful about the way the Good Grief Network approaches the idea of action is it’s not like prescriptive. It’s not like action has to look like going to a rally for everybody or being involved in local politics or, you know, advocacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>They approach it in a very open way. So everybody gets to decide what action means for them. So maybe it’s being a youth educator and dealing with the next generation. Maybe it’s being involved in the nascent and fascinating field of psychology that is really aimed at exactly some of these things we’re thinking about, and even integrating climate change into approaches and therapy. Or maybe you’re an artist. There’s not one way to be active in that. There’s not one way to be involved and in this and take action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Erica Hellerstein: \u003c/strong>That’s kind of why I see accepting the uncertainty of the future as strangely empowering because it allows for reimagining our lives and our livelihoods and how we live. And it opens the door to change and trying to make that outcome a little bit better. There’s like almost a responsibility that we have to ourselves, our peers and our children to not be nihilistic. That’s like really, really our responsibility in some ways because it is, I think, so easy to fall into that. I guess I can’t not feel hopeful because that feels too nihilistic for me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ericka Cruz Guevarra: \u003c/strong>That was investigative reporter Erica Hellerstein in conversation with KQED’s Erin Baldassari, who talked with Erica for the latest season of Sold Out: rethinking Housing in America. This season is all about the intersection of our housing and climate crises. And you can find Sold Out wherever you found the Bay. Erica’s piece, Grieving California, was originally written for Coda Story. We’ll leave you a link to that in our show notes.

The agency worked with the Southern Sierra Miwuk and other tribes on the cleanup effort after last year’s Oak Fire. “We work with them to ensure these sites are not damaged by fire-fighting or other equipment,” he said. [aside postID=news_11958011 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2023/08/CalMattersDelta01-1020x680.jpg'] Bratcher said his agency is trying to build trust with tribal communities. Gegere Brochini with the Miwuk Nation said she is glad the state’s fire department and other agencies are now actively engaging Indigenous people to clean up after wildfires burn through. She was involved in the cleanup effort after the Oak Fire. “I did a cultural resource spot check to make sure the remains of ancient village sites were protected from the dozers,” said Gegere Brochini. “Otherwise they doze everything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Tara Fouch-Moore said the removal of Indigenous peoples from their lands makes it hard for traditions like cultural burning to thrive because out of context, these practices lose their meaning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yes, we can share our songs despite climate change, and yes, we can learn how to process acorn,” she said. “But it needs to be whole and within the landscape to really, truly understand.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why the Southern Sierra Miwuk Nation has been working for years with the National Park Service to rebuild \u003ca href=\"https://www.southernsierramiwuknation.org/wahhoga\">Wahhoga\u003c/a>, a village tribal ancestors once occupied in the Yosemite Valley.
