Ok, an anecdotal image - but this is what structure protection looked like in the 1935 Malibu fires. What a change in scale and character - of fire, of the built environment, of firefighting capacity (CCC boys then). Only the inevitability of fire in some form is constant.

Les incendies qui s'étendent jusqu’en ville sont terrifiants. Ils sont récurrents dans des endroits comme la Californie avec climat et végétation de type méditerranéen. Et ils s'aggravent avec l'augmentation du nombre de maisons construites dans les zones exposées et avec le changement climatique.
