Climate Change Intensifies Fire Risks in Western US

Credited from: THEHILL

  • Climate change is causing drier conditions in the Western United States, contributing to severe wildfires.
  • High temperatures lead to parched landscapes that facilitate the spread of blazes, as noted by climate scientist John Abatzoglou.
  • Recent reports indicate that 2024 is officially the hottest year on record, with carbon emissions not declining as expected.
  • Studies show that the vapor pressure deficit, a key factor in wildfire increases, is largely influenced by human-induced climate change.
  • Longer fire seasons and unpredictable events are a direct consequence of climate shifts, making extreme fire risks harder to forecast.
