As of December 6, 2020, over 9,279 fires have burned 4,359,517 acres, more than 4% of California's roughly 100 million acres of land, making 2020 the largest wildfire season recorded in California's modern history. This has also led to large-scale power shutoffs.

Shawn Adderly, Chief of Staff & Principal Program Manager at Pacific Gas & Electric company - California's largest Investor-Owned Utility serving 5.48 million customers - joins us this week to talk about the recording-breaking wildfires this year and the effect its' had on the electricity grid and residents of the state of California.
