I'd say the wildfires in Indonesia are quite concerning as well, but this specific question is clearly about the incident in California. A) is the way to go, no doubt.

You know, I heard they're actually considering renaming California to 'Flamingfornia' at this point. Seems fitting, am I right? Haha, but for real, A) is the correct answer.

C'mon, Alaska? Really? That's just ridiculous. Everyone knows the West Coast of the US, particularly California, has been the hotspot for major wildfires lately. A) is the only logical answer here.

I agree, California has had its fair share of wildfires in recent years. Hopefully, the power company learned their lesson and will be more diligent about maintenance and safety going forward.

Well, it's obvious that the answer is A) California. I remember reading about the devastating wildfires there caused by that PG&E power line incident. Terrible situation, really.

I also think it's A) California, the power company had to pay a huge amount in compensation for the damages caused by the wildfires.
