California is (still) on fire—is climate change to blame?
In a word, yes—at least in part. Hotter temperatures yield drier vegetation that fuels devastating fires. In the last 100 years, California’s climate has raised 3 degrees, making fire season longer and more deadly.
“All else being equal, in a warmer world, vegetation is going to be drier, even in a place like California where vegetation is usually dry by autumn. You can still make it drier,”—Daniel Swain, PhD, Climate Scientist, Institute of the Environment and Sustainability, UCLA. |
