The blaze destroyed more than 1,000 homes and buildings. It was the most destructive wildfire in the state's history.As part of our "Remaking America" collaboration with KUNC, 1A visited Colorado for a live discussion to hear how the community is still recovering from the Marshall fire, and what state and local governments can do to become more resilient against climate threats.
