In the wild, the color fades over time with exposure to sunlight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You might see a gum or thickening agent just to change the viscosity, how sticky this stuff is,” McCurry says. Thickeners also keep the material from drifting off-target, he adds, “But the business end of it really is ammonium phosphate fertilizer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For anyone who’s heard of fertilizer being used in explosives: That’s ammonium nitrate. Phos-Chek commonly contains two types of salt: diammonium phosphate ([NH4]2HPO4) and ammonium polyphosphate ((NH4PO3)n).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with its use as a fertilizer (providing nitrogen and phosphorous to plants), you often see ammonium phosphate in \u003ca href=\"https://www.smithsonianstore.com/smithsonian-electronic-crystal-growing-kit-68679/?srsltid=AfmBOoruJs08ZsBaPiYe9iYnMqMMokWeta_WD8yTOUQtvv23puIQlhG5\">crystal-making kits\u003c/a> that are popular with children.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>So, how does Phos-Chek stop fires from spreading?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Under normal conditions, cellulose in plant matter decomposes as it’s heated, producing flammable compounds. Phos-Chek’s maker says the reaction between the retardant and cellulose consumes heat energy from the approaching fire and produces non-flammable carbon material.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The goal is to slow or stop the fire’s spread, especially if the area includes homes or other structures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They don’t tend to drop [retardant] directly in the center of an ongoing fire,” McCurry says. “They tend to drop kind of at the barrier of it because they’re trying to prevent it from spreading. And the reason that these products are kind of useful for that potentially is that the active ingredient is not water. Right? It’s the fertilizer. So even after the water evaporates, you still have that red stripe there for days or weeks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Big air tankers can drop up to 9,400 gallons of Phos-Chek onto trees and other potential fuels. The massive quantities have spurred McCurry and other researchers to consider potential harms from the material. But McCurry says people in a fire zone likely have more pressing worries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In terms of immediate concern, the main thing I’d be worried about, regardless of whether there’s fire retardant used or not, is just air pollution — like particulate matter,” he says. “If you’re walking around in an area that’s been burned, it’s probably still very smoky.

As the flames approached, police officers told drivers to flee on foot. The abandoned cars were later cleared with a bulldozer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The scene echoed evacuations from other recent wildfires, ones with far deadlier results. In both California’s Camp Fire in 2018 and in Lahaina, Maui in 2023, residents died in their cars or fleeing on foot when the streets were blocked with standstill traffic and they were overtaken by the blaze.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With wildfires spreading faster as the climate gets hotter, evacuation is becoming even more critical. In high winds, like those Los Angeles saw this week, firefighters have little chance of slowing or stopping the blaze. Getting people out is the only option.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, many communities are lagging on evacuation planning, studies have found.

Gavin Newsom said during an afternoon press conference that he’s already seen many of them destroyed. The fire remains uncontained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hundreds of firefighters have been battling the blaze on foot in the hillsides of the Santa Monica Mountains, where the fire originally broke out, as well as by plane, dropping water and flame retardant. In the Pacific Palisades community, thousands of people have scrambled to escape the flames. \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/brief/news/climate-environment/fires-southern-california-gusty-winds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">According to LAist\u003c/a>, video footage showed drivers on the Pacific Coast Highway fleeing their cars to the ocean at the behest of officers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Additionally, a second major wind-driven fire was burning Tuesday night in Los Angeles County as fierce Santa Ana winds roared across the region. The \u003ca href=\"https://www.fire.ca.gov/incidents/2025/1/7/eaton-fire\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Eaton Fire\u003c/a> had destroyed 400 acres in Altadena, north of Pasadena — an area bordering the Angeles National Forest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Evacuations \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/Angeles_NF/status/1876832615484858622\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">have been ordered\u003c/a>. “High winds were driving rapid fire growth, posing a significant threat to nearby communities and making containment efforts challenging,” CalFire \u003ca href=\"https://www.fire.ca.gov/incidents/2025/1/7/eaton-fire/updates/50a2ae08-439c-4864-bd5f-fbede1bc7e59\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said\u003c/a>. “Firefighters are working aggressively to slow the spread and protect critical infrastructure under extreme conditions. The combination of low humidity, dry fuels, and shifting winds has heightened the potential for spot fires and rapid expansion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conditions were changing quickly Tuesday night as evacuation areas shifted alongside the fire. Officials warned that the Santa Ana winds were only going to get worse on Tuesday night through Wednesday morning, reaching 100 mph or more. The National Weather Service warned of a “particularly dangerous situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Very strong gusts and low relative humidity will allow any fires that develop to spread VERY rapidly,” the agency added. On Wednesday, that’s predicted to affect Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You can find the latest information about the fire’s reach and damage \u003ca

The combination of low humidity, dry fuels, and shifting winds has heightened the potential for spot fires and rapid expansion.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Conditions were changing quickly Tuesday night as evacuation areas shifted alongside the fire. Officials warned that the Santa Ana winds were only going to get worse on Tuesday night through Wednesday morning, reaching 100 mph or more. The National Weather Service warned of a “particularly dangerous situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Very strong gusts and low relative humidity will allow any fires that develop to spread VERY rapidly,” the agency added.

We tried in good faith to address those concerns without becoming the arbiters of truth,” Zuckerberg said. “But the fact checkers have just been too politically biased and have destroyed more trust than they’ve created, especially in the U.S.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meta set up one of the most extensive \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/12/15/505728377/facebook-details-its-new-plan-to-combat-fake-news-stories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">partnerships with fact checkers\u003c/a> after the 2016 presidential election, in which \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/08/18/903616315/senate-releases-final-report-on-russias-interference-in-2016-election\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Russia spread false claims\u003c/a> on Facebook and other online platforms. The company created what has become a standard for how tech platforms limit the spread of \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/11/19/502692075/misinformation-on-facebook-zuckerberg-lists-ways-of-fighting-fake-news\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">falsehoods and misleading information\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the 2020 election and the COVID pandemic accelerated a backlash among conservatives who cast content moderation as a form of \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/10/16/924625825/dont-censor-stop-the-hoaxes-facebook-twitter-face-a-catch-22\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">censorship\u003c/a>. Facebook, along with Twitter and YouTube, banned Trump from their platforms after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol but eventually \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2023/01/25/1146961818/trump-meta-facebook-instagram-ban-ends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">allowed him to return\u003c/a> ahead of his second run for office. In recent years, fact checkers, researchers of false narratives, and social media content moderation programs have become targets of \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2023/11/10/1211929764/election-false-claims-social-media-cisa-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Republican-led Congressional probes and legal challenges\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zuckerberg said his views on content moderation have changed. Meta has made “too many mistakes” in how it applied its content policies, he said, and pointed to Trump’s election to a second term as “a cultural tipping point towards once again prioritizing speech.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So we are going to get back to our roots, focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies, and restoring free expression on our platforms,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meta said instead of working with third-party fact checkers, it would shift to a “community notes” program where users write and rate notes that appear next to specific posts. That’s similar to the approach Elon Musk has championed on X, the platform formerly known as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2021/02/10/965839888/twitters-birdwatch-aims-to-crowdsource-fight-against-misinformation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meta also said it would change how it enforces its policies, relying less on automated systems except for “illegal and high-severity violations,” including terrorism, child sexual exploitation, and fraud. The company’s U.S. content moderation team will move from California to Texas. The move should “help us build trust to do this work in places where there is less concern about the bias of our teams,” Zuckerberg said.[aside label=\"More Meta News\" postID=\"news_11965392,news_12008143,news_11968723\"]Fact checkers who have worked with Meta for years pushed back against Zuckerberg’s accusation of bias.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"ad-header \">\n\u003cp>“It was particularly troubling to see him echo claims of bias against the fact checkers because he knows that the ones that participated in his program were signatories of a code of principles that requires that they be transparent and nonpartisan,” said Bill Adair, co-founder of the International Fact Checking Network. He founded PolitiFact, one of the first participants in Facebook’s third-party fact checker’s program, which he left in 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Meta, up until this morning, has always appreciated the independence of fact checkers,” Adair said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Meta pays fact checkers for their work, some fact checking organizations — most of which are non-profits — heavily rely on the company to survive. “We’ll see fewer fact checking reports published and fewer fact checkers working,” said Angie Drobnic Holan, the director of International Fact Checking Network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the fact checking programs on social media have been really positive for helping to reduce hoax content and conspiracy theories. And to see it so quickly curtailed this way without a whole lot of discussion is disappointing,” Holan said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans welcomed the announcement as validating their long-running claims that Meta and other tech companies are biased against conservatives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Meta finally admits to censoring speech … what a great birthday present to wake up to and a huge win for free speech,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) \u003ca href=\"https://x.com/RandPaul/status/1876614145275015357\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">posted on X\u003c/a> on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

Facebook, along with Twitter and YouTube, banned Trump from their platforms after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol but eventually \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2023/01/25/1146961818/trump-meta-facebook-instagram-ban-ends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">allowed him to return\u003c/a> ahead of his second run for office. In recent years, fact checkers, researchers of false narratives, and social media content moderation programs have become targets of \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2023/11/10/1211929764/election-false-claims-social-media-cisa-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Republican-led Congressional probes and legal challenges\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zuckerberg said his views on content moderation have changed. Meta has made “too many mistakes” in how it applied its content policies, he said, and pointed to Trump’s election to a second term as “a cultural tipping point towards once again prioritizing speech.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So we are going to get back to our roots, focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies, and restoring free expression on our platforms,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meta said instead of working with third-party fact checkers, it would shift to a “community notes” program where users write and rate notes that appear next to specific posts. That’s similar to the approach Elon Musk has championed on X, the platform formerly known as \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2021/02/10/965839888/twitters-birdwatch-aims-to-crowdsource-fight-against-misinformation\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meta also said it would change how it enforces its policies, relying less on automated systems except for “illegal and high-severity violations,” including terrorism, child sexual exploitation, and fraud. The company’s U.S. content moderation team will move from California to Texas. The move should “help us build trust to do this work in places where there is less concern about the bias of our teams,” Zuckerberg said.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He founded PolitiFact, one of the first participants in Facebook’s third-party fact checker’s program, which he left in 2020.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Meta, up until this morning, has always appreciated the independence of fact checkers,” Adair said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since Meta pays fact checkers for their work, some fact checking organizations — most of which are non-profits — heavily rely on the company to survive. “We’ll see fewer fact checking reports published and fewer fact checkers working,” said Angie Drobnic Holan, the director of International Fact Checking Network.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the fact checking programs on social media have been really positive for helping to reduce hoax content and conspiracy theories.
