California Wildfires

I admit that I am in the engineering field, so I am a problem-solver. Wife complains about something, and I am ready to "fix" it for her--In that case its the wrong approach, but generally its what I do.

OK, "California Wild Fires destroy XXX homes."
I think I've seen/ heard that headline evry year, this time for decades.
The problem-solver in me says. "There must be a way to fix this" Either change the environment, or cut more firebreaks, or prohibit houses in wild fire areas.

Yet it goes on year after year.

(sort of the same as people rebuilding in a flood plain)

Someone has to 'plain this to me. "Why?"
