Preparing for, responding to, and helping Californians recover from them are a part of our DNA. California is very clearly experiencing the impacts of a changing environment. In 2021, the state has already seen extreme heat waves, drought conditions, and wildfires earlier than previous years. Our current climate is a reminder for all Californians to be prepared ahead of the next emergency.
