California Fire Summary
Mendocino Complex Fire
Woolsey Fire
Camp Fire
with a total of 8,527 fires burning an area of 1,893,913 acres. $1.792 billion in fire suppression Cal Fire costs. The cost to individual homeowners, the state, and insurers will top $23 billion
was the largest recorded fire complex in California history with more than 410,000 acres. 280 destroyed structures and $201 million in fire suppression costs
across Los Angeles and Ventura County, had engulfed more than 96,949 acres, destroyed 1,643 structures and prompted the evacuation of more than 295,000 people. Cost $6 billion
had burned nearly 18,800 homes and more than 153,000 acres. This is now the deadliest and most destructive fire in California history. Cost $16.5 billion

Scale of the disaster
A combination of an increased amount of natural fuel and compounding atmospheric conditions linked to global warming led to a series of destructive fires
Recent research on wildfires in California, published in August 2018, predicted an increase in the number of wildfires as a consequence of climate change
Global warming led to higher temperatures and less rain
Artificial rain technology will keep wildfire under control

Proposed solution
Science and technology are winning and prevent wildfires
The process of preventing and fighting wildfires complicates difficult terrain
The newest and proven technology allows us to deploy an “air bridge” in just a few hours
With the help of artificial rain it will be possible to retain a wildfire in distance of 2 miles from a living area
