We have power outages from time to time in my part of SoCal, but the power lines cross through a fire hazard zone. Guess what’s causing it to become more hazardous? Climate change.

This is more about modernizing the grid and adapting to climate change (caused in large part by fossil fuels), and I’m happy to live in a state that invests in infrastructure while trying to solve the problems we’ve been dealt. I can’t say my native red state was doing anything remotely productive (unless the fed was handing out money of course).
