Shawn Maestretti, a landscape architect whose Altadena home burned in the Eaton fire has a lot to consider when it comes to rebuilding. One issue is whether to rebuild with gas or electric. "I have questions, naturally, and it's too soon for me to be making decisions about this right now," Maestretti says Ryan Kellman/NPR hide caption

Now that burned debris has been removed from lots, both Los Angeles city and county have started issuing building permits.
Among the many decisions homeowners face is whether to rebuild with all-electric appliances or re-install gas ones. California's policy is to transition away from burning climate-warming natural gas in buildings and switching to electric. Climate activists hope to convince homeowners to make that choice, but requiring all-electric homes of people who just had their lives upended by a wildfire is proving challenging.
