California. Australia. Indonesia. Siberia. Brazil. The Democratic Republic of Congo. Wildfires are burning out of control in every continent. They destroy homes and pump out pollutants that hurt us all. So how can we stop them?

#PlanetA #Wildfire #Solutions

We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What can we do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess.
