That's my understanding at this point in Altadena.
That's aged infrastructure.
But they have to get out there and replace the aged infrastructure. You remember the Paradise Fire.
Well... A hundred year old transmission, transmitter blue. A hundred year old. So where is it? And I think state governors here in California, the PUC, you have an obligation to follow through and oversee are these utilities. Upgrading the infrastructures. Where's the problems on their lines? Are they clearing their brush?
Are they doing what they need to do to prevent this type of scenario happening again? I'm not sure when they're going to figure it out. I think... Wenn man... Wenn man immer noch... Ich meine, was ist der estimierte Wert dieser Feuer? 160 Billionen Dollar?
I giggle about that, but it is a really good way to keep that brush in check. And we're going to have to stay on top of the utilities regarding their infrastructures.
So here, that's the Wizard of Oz. We are in our awakening. The facade has slipped. The curtain is being pulled back. And I think many of us are realizing, what the fuck? There is no wizard. So really, I'm going to go to what just hit me and I shared it on social media today. We're moving into the Jetsons. We all know it. We're moving into the future.
No, it doesn't have to be that way. There's many other ways to build, to develop. I've seen some of those newer homes.
That's a good word, absolutely. There's always this idea, it's one way or no way, my way or the highway.
That's ridiculous. If we're even going to talk about renewable energies, it's not just one thing. It's going to be a multi-pronged approach. It could be six, seven different avenues. And it's the same thing in rebuilding our homes. And it doesn't have to be those cement blocks. I saw one with some of the new construction, how they do Ja, das geht schon lange. And it's finding that balance.
It's striking that balance.
No, it's not out of my purview because I see it every day. And I'll keep kind of going back to Hinckley to kind of, I hope, answer the question you're asking. So I feel things. I see things. I know it sounds really weird, but this is who I am. And I think it's because of my dyslexia that this is what I'm connected to.
Ich komme genau dazu, was Sie mich gefragt haben, wenn ich in diese Gemeinschaften komme. Sie fühlen sich unerwartet. Sie schalten die Tür auf mich. Ich kann damit nicht umgehen. Und du musst das respektieren und sie das fühlen lassen. Und was ich tue, ist, ihnen Informationen zu bringen. Das ist es. Gib ihnen einen Moment, um es zu lesen, um es zu schauen.
Weil ich habe 99% der Zeit gelernt, wenn sie es tun, wenn du das Unwahrheit, das sie fühlen, respektierst, And let them feel it. But give them some information. They will eventually in their own time maybe take a look at it. Maybe make that phone call and maybe come out of it. And I've seen it everywhere I've gone.
Ich habe gelernt, dass ich mit ihnen akzeptiere, dass sie da sind. Und wenn du dich ungewiss fühlst, dann nimm mich nicht auf. Wenn wir es einfach mit anderen teilen könnten, dass wir gefährlich sind. In und für sich, das zu erlauben, findest du Empowerment.
Es hat einen Ausgangspunkt. Es ist ein Prozess, aber wir haben uns beigebracht, es ist falsch, vulnerable zu sein. Das bedeutet, du bist schwach. Das bedeutet, ich kann auf dich steigen. Und ich habe gelernt, meine Vulnerabilität war Dyslexie. Und wenn ich das als Superkraft erheben konnte, wurde ich empfohlen. Und jeder muss da auf sich selbst kommen.
Und Gemeinschaften in Verrücktheit, das machen sie oft. Sie werden anfangen, darauf zu schauen. Es ist nichts falsch. Nichts falsch, besonders in dieser Situation, um zu sagen, weil wir gelernt haben, nicht zu sagen, weil es bedeutet, du bist schwach.
When you can say, I'm scared, I'm fearful, I'm not certain and own that vulnerability, it flips to empowerment quickly.
Again, there's a balance there. And I hear exactly what you're saying. And I've learned, we have been taught and believed that there's this huge umbrella that everything's coming down from the top to us. Flip that. It begins with us and it builds from there. And I always envision and I see it happen in communities. And you are going to see it happen here again.
You will see the community of Pacific Palisades. You will see the community of Altadena. Believe me, they're going to rise. They will become that gladiator. I know it, I believe it, and I've seen it. But if in every situational disaster we have across this country, if every community did just that, light that up.
