We devote several segments of this week's Exchange to a one-year lookback to the Carr Fire and its ongoing effects in the Redding area.
But JPR News has other avenues of approach to covering wildfire past and present. Exchange producer and reporter April Ehrlich has been working for months on of people who live in communities affected by wildfire. She spends a few days in Redding this week for the project, and visits the studio for an overview of the work.
