💨 Abstract

After the devastating California wildfires, homeowners in Altadena are considering using natural building techniques like cob and adobe to rebuild their homes. These methods, which use earth materials, could help create houses that are less likely to burn and less toxic if they do burn. Los Angeles County officials are open to exploring the use of these materials in the rebuilding process, despite the region's reputation for being cautious due to earthquakes and fires.
