John Vaillant (USA/Canada) won the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-fiction for Fire Weather, a book about the terrible forest fire that burned Fort McMurray, the centre of the Canadian oil industry. In this brilliant work, Vaillant argues that it was not just a fire, but a warning that we need to prepare for an ever hotter and more inflammable world. In conversation with Jhan Carlo Espinoza, research director at IRD and hydroclimatologist at the Institut des Géosciences de l'Environnement (IGE) in Grenoble, France.
