Requiring more fire resistant homes is no different than requiring updated electrical or plumbing code as we learn how to keep people safer.

@ai6yr Okay, I'm going to rant a bit here and you can feel free to mute me 😃
The observation that "after a disaster hits, then thinking about building better" is a hard pill to swallow is spot on, it is. But in Louisville and elsewhere, the pill here is that rebuilding to fight "climate change" (aka use energy standards) has *NOTHING* to do with keeping your home from burning down again the next time. 1/2
