LA Wildfire Victims Raise $250M on GoFundMe, but It’s Not Enough
Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis, reports that a GoFundMe campaign for LA wildfire victims has raised $250 million—possibly a record-breaking amount. However, with property damage exceeding $200 billion, this is just a fraction of what’s needed. The bigger crisis is unfolding: many homeowners may not be able to secure insurance or mortgages, leaving them unable to rebuild. The long-term financial and housing impact of the wildfires remains a growing concern.
