Paradise: Inside California's Deadliest Wildfire

In November 2018, Paradise, California suffered through the nation's deadliest wildfire in a century. The Camp Fire leveled the mountain town, killing 85 people and destroying more than 18,000

In November 2018, Paradise, California suffered through the nation's deadliest wildfire in a century. The Camp Fire leveled the mountain town, killing 85 people and destroying more than 18,000 structures. At the time, reporter Lizzie Johnson was a staff writer for the San Francisco Chronicle. Her definitive firsthand accounts of the fire and its wreckage helped tell the vivid story of this massive disaster. Three years later, Johnson's new book, Paradise: One Town's Struggle to Survive an American Wildfire, provides a detailed overview of the fire that destroyed Paradise, examines what went wrong and suggests ways to avert future tragedies as the climate crisis unfolds and California's drought worsens. Drawing on years of on-the-ground reporting and reams of public records, including 911 calls and testimony from a grand jury investigation, Johnson provides a minute-by-minute account of the Camp Fire, following residents and first responders as they fight to save themselves and their town. As California enters what is usually the toughest part of its fire season during a historically dry year, please join us in a timely look back at the tragedy of Paradise, California, what is being done to bring that city back, and what we all need to be aware of regarding the increasing dangers from wildfires in our "new normal."

But Matt Damon, 46, also is co-founder of Water.org, a nonprofit that promotes access to safe water and sanitation. National Geographic Editor in Chief Susan Goldberg interviewed him in Washington, D.C., as he prepared to address leaders at the World Bank. In this candid and emotional interview, Damon discusses the world’s water crisis and how his nonprofit is trying to push the needle towards progress. The percentage of people defecating in the open air declined worldwide from 1990 to 2015, with the most dramatic reductions in some of the least developed countries. Yet nearly 950 million people still practice this public health hazard—a challenge augmented by population growth. Damon hopes that solutions such as microfinancing will help open air defecation be a thing of the past by 2030. Writer Elizabeth Royte and photographer Andrea Bruce document sanitation problems in the developing world in the story “A Place to Go,” part of the August 2017 issue. : http://www.nationalgeographic.com/magazine/2017/08/toilet-defecate-outdoors-stunting-sanitation/ Visit http://Water.org to learn more about the organization’s efforts to increase access to safe water and sanitation in the developing world.
