In 2018, a failure in a utility transmission tower sparked the deadliest wildfire in California history. In this class, students will learn about the series of events that led to this disaster. This is an engineering-leaning class. We will mainly focus on the failure of the physical components of the transmission tower. We will also touch on climate change and how utility companies function. Below are some of the topics we will cover. What we will cover: • Transmission tower/lines basics • The problem with our infrastructure • The failure point • The aftermath • Solutions for the future This class is great for students who are interested in electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, environmental engineering, climate change, or environmental science. *Due to the nature of this topic please see the parental guidance section

This wildfire ultimately resulted in 85 deaths. While we will not go into detail about these deaths but they are brought up in class as a result of the wildfire. Our main focus is on the engineering aspect of what happened and how we can avoid it in the future. Regulations may come up as one of the solutions in class during the discussion (Ex: A student might bring up "regulations should be put in place to make sure the utility company is monitoring the safety of their equipment").
