About this episode
A new book called California Burning details Pacific Gas & Electric's 117-year rise to becoming one of the largest utilities in the United States—as well as how the company's negligence, a changing climate, and state energy policy have all contributed to devastating wildfires in California. Today on the podcast, we welcome the book's author, Wall Street Journal energy reporter Katherine Blunt, to discuss these trends, and why California's experience could be a harbinger of things to come across the globe.
