We should all be worried as climate change results in more extreme weather patterns and events. But worrying in a vacuum does nothing. Preparing, on the other hand, can help mitigate effects, improve resilience, speed up recovery, and facilitate better sleep.

Puget Sound Energy’s Wildfire Mitigation and Response Program is designed to help our region stay safe during wildfire events. During wildfire season, which can run from now into October, certain conditions—such as high winds, extra dry vegetation, and low humidity—can increase the risk of fire from power lines.
