Climate Crisis Drives Wildfires: A Call to Action from Author John Vaillant

Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have left over 150,000 residents evacuated and at least 11 fatalities reported, marking a significant crisis.
  • According to author John Vaillant, these "21st-century fires" are fueled by the climate crisis and the impact of fossil fuels, altering the fire behavior significantly.
  • The fires are projected to result in economic losses reaching $50 to $150 billion, potentially making them the most costly in US history.
  • Vaillant emphasizes that the relationship between humans and fire is complex, noting our dependency on combustion in daily life.
  • For those in fire-prone areas, Vaillant advises to focus on the wind rather than the fire, as shifting winds can carry embers from distant fires.
