The L.A. wildfires, which began Jan. 7 , have taken at least 27 lives and destroyed thousands of homes.

Stewart is worried that toxins from burned homes will pollute the beaches and ocean when rains start. “We’ve got a responsibility to the environment,” he said. “A beautiful day in Malibu is what draws us here and makes life so idyllic.
