Paradise Lost: The California Town Still Recovering After the 2018 Wildfires

September 20, 2020

Firefighters on the West Coast are facing the worst wildfire season yet. Across California, Oregon and Washington State, at least 35 people have died and some residents are left choking through the worst air on the planet right now. The Golden State is once again setting a record this year with millions of acres scorched. And there are still two months left before the wildfire season ends. Recovery will take years, as the residents of Paradise, California know all too well, after 85 people were killed and their town was burnt to the ground in 2018.
