Climate change was a major factor behind the hot, dry weather that gave rise to the devastating LA fires, a scientific study has confirmed. It made those weather conditions about 35% more likely, according to World Weather Attribution - globally recognised for their studies linking extreme weather to climate change.

Two destructive wildfires in Los Angeles have caused significant damage due to human-induced climate change. The study highlights how warmer temperatures and altered weather patterns have increased the frequency and intensity of such events,

Human-driven climate change set the stage for the devastating Los Angeles wildfires by reducing rainfall, parching vegetation, and extending the dangerous overlap between flammable drought conditions
