Climate Change Fuels California Wildfires

A new study highlights that human-caused climate change is significantly increasing the frequency and intensity of wildfires in Southern California. Researchers found that global warming has raised the likelihood of extreme fire weather by 35% and intensified it by 6%. While factors like powerful Santa Ana winds, dry conditions, and high temperatures also contribute, climate change amplifies these risks, making wildfires more destructive. Using historical data and computer simulations, scientists validated their findings, emphasizing the urgent need for action on climate change. The study serves as a critical reminder of the ongoing climate crisis. #ClimateChange #Wildfires #CaliforniaWildfires #GlobalWarming #EnvironmentalImpact #SantaAnaWinds #ExtremeWeather #FireSeverity #ClimateCrisis #ResearchStudy #ScientificCommunity #UrgentAction #ClimateScience #SustainableFuture #WildfireRisk #ClimateAction
