Join us for this special screening of Elemental: Reimagine Wildfire. This award-winning film takes viewers on a journey with top experts and survivors to better understand how homes and communities ignite in fast moving wildfires and what steps we can take to prevent these disasters. Learn about the harrowing escape from Paradise, California; research examining why some homes burn and others don’t; and Native American practices that have long used fire to restore landscapes and increase safety. Elemental explores the complicated relationship humans have with fire and how we can prepare our communities.

We hope you’ll enjoy this special event and the discussion that follows. Please note that lunch will not be provided but can be brought in. You can learn more about local meal options here.

Discussion: Transforming Wildfire Attitudes and Solutions

Homes lost to wildfires have increased markedly in the past decade. Most are lost to fast-moving fires that skip over vegetation treatments and fuel breaks. These homes are ignited by burning embers well ahead of the flame front and communities continue burning long after the flame front has passed. After the film, join the the executive producer and fire experts for a discussion about redefining wildfire challenges and how to scale solutions that will work, as well as opportunities to give your hot take on the film, ask burning questions, or even share an incendiary remark.
