Our relationship with wildfires

Nearly 3.5 million acres of land have burned in California, making this the largest wildfire season recorded in the state’s history - and it’s only September. Fires are still raging up the entire west coast, air quality remains unhealthy, and entire forests have been decimated. Our relationship with forests and fire is changing and will play a big role in how forests evolve. Plus, how colleges are reopening without a surge in infections. And, with the start of the Jewish New Year, synagogue High Holy Day services are going virtual. Guests: Axios' Bryan Walsh, Alison Snyder, and Erica Pandey and Benjy Renton, senior at Middlebury College. Credits: "Axios Today" is produced in partnership with Pushkin Industries. The team includes Niala Boodhoo, Carol Alderman, Cara Shillenn, Nuria Marquez Martinez, Sara Kehaulani Goo, Alex Sugiura and Naomi Shavin. Music is composed by Evan Viola.
